The game will require 100 GB on both PC and consoles. With PS4 requiring 95 GB and 93 GB for Xbox One. PS5 versions will need 136 GB and Xbox Series 125 GB. PC versions will need 125 GB if you want to play with Ultra and 82 GB for a normal install. If you just want multiplayer alone it'll be 35 GB which isn't too bad.
Players can uninstall specific modes like Zombies or Campaign but the storage requirements are still very high. This doesn't take into consideration future updates, which when looking at Modern Warfare's year-long history has not been kind.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is set to release on November 13 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Upgrades will cost $10 as opposed to CD Projekt RED who is giving away free upgrades for Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
