Call Of Duty File Sizes Are Getting Smaller, Including Black Ops 6

Call of Duty is known for having massive file sizes that can eat up a ton of storage, especially on older consoles like PlayStation 4, but Activision is changing this before the launch of Black Ops 6. Players will also have a better control over what Call of Duty content they download.

A large update is arriving alongside the launch of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone's Season 5 Reloaded on August 21. In addition to the new seasonal content, the update includes a few extra changes meant to shrink the file size, including reorganizing the game files, separating Warzone from the default download for annual titles, and implementing new texture streaming tech.

With this new update in effect, players will only be downloading the annual Call of Duty titles they purchase, and Warzone will be a separate download that they can choose to "opt-in" and download at that time. Alternatively, they can separately download it at any time.
