On next-gen, pre-loading begins when the consoles come out, so 10th November for Xbox Series X and 12th November in the US for PS5. On PS4 and Xbox One it's from 5am UK time on 6th November. Meanwhile, pre-loading is also available. The Xbox Series S comes with a 512GB SSD. The S targets a native 1440p resolution as opposed to the 4K the X offers. It's also worth noting that Black Ops Cold War is the same size on Xbox Series S as it is on the X, despite comments from Microsoft that suggested S games would have a smaller install size because of smaller resolution texture packages. The game will grow over time as updates are released.

Remember, these are the file sizes for Black Ops Cold War at launch. PC players can also install specific game mode packs, such as for Campaign and Zombies, to get that file size down.

This is significantly less than Activision previously said Black Ops Cold War would take up on PC just last week, so perhaps some optimisation has gone on since then. On PC, multiplayer only is 35GB, whereas it's 82GB for the full game, or 125GB for the full game on ultra graphics. Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War - Official Launch Trailer On PlayStation 5 it's 133GB, and on Xbox Series X and S, it's 136GB.Īctivision added console players can uninstall specific game mode packs, such as for Campaign or Zombies, to reduce the overall file size.

Treyarch and Raven's first-person shooter weighs in at 95GB on PlayStation 4 and 93GB on Xbox One. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War takes up 40GB more space on next-gen consoles, Activision has announced.
