The Call of Duty series has eaten up more and more storage space in recent years, with last year’s entry, Black Ops Cold Warthat consume up to 180 GB on some platforms. But the coming one Call of Duty: Vanguard has new technology to save gamers valuable space, said Activision and Sledgehammer Games in a blog post Wednesday.
Activision stated that the new on-demand texture streaming technology is responsible for the size reduction compared to previous entries – in certain cases by as much as 50%. but vanguard will still consume almost 100 GB for players on PlayStation platforms.
On their blog, Activision and Sledgehammer Games revealed the console install sizes for vanguardwhich will launch on November 5th.
PlayStation 5: 64.13 GB Download | 89.84 GB of space required
Playstation 4: 54.65 GB Download | 93.12 GB of space required
Xbox Series X| S: 61 GB Download | 61 GB of space required
Xbox One: 56.6 GB download | 56.6 GB of space required
Sledgehammer said it will reveal PC specs – for minimum, recommended, competitive, and ultra 4K gaming – in the near future, and gamers will be able to pre-download this version starting November 2nd.
Players who have already pre-ordered vanguard can also start preloading the game. Both PlayStation and Xbox players can begin installing the game on Thursday evening, October 28th – although times vary by region.
As with the last few entries, Call of Duty players can customize their installation by prioritizing modes and leaving others out. This should make way for players if they’ve finished the campaign or never intend to play Zombies mode.
