Activision has revealed that the download size for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be smaller than that of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, as the publisher aims to trim install sizes for the military shooter franchise going forward.
Black Ops 6 will benefit from a smaller download size thanks to updates between now and launch that will alter the way users download Call of Duty content. The first arrives with Season 5 Reloaded for Warzone and Modern Warfare 3, which only requires you to download files associated with a new Call of Duty; prior to this, user also had to download the free-to-play Warzone.
Players can ‘opt-in’ to get Call of Duty: Warzone when they’re downloading a new annual title or simply download it separately at any point in time. The choice is yours.
