Remember that on top of graphical advancements, long-running multiplayer games like this are designed to keep you coming back over and over again-especially those with free-to-play business models like Call of Duty Warzone. When asked in March about why the game was so big, production director Paul Haile himself claimed there's ' just a ton of content,' and there's certainly some truth to this. ( Black Ops IIII was even smaller when it came out, but it didn't have a single-player campaign.)Ī year after Modern Warfare launched, though, the game had inflated to 200GB, more than three times its original size. For reference, Modern Warfare was around 60GB on the PS4 at the time of its launch, which is about 12GB larger than Call of Duty WWII's original release size. It's possible this leads to a jump in hard drive real estate. Not only that, but the company said it was able to push 'roughly five times more geometry per frame,” allowing it to fill the scene with more objects and people. When Modern Warfare came out in 2019, Activision put out a blog post exploring some of the technical advancements it had made in the latest game engine, improving realism in the environment, weapons, and characters-especially when it comes to motion-captured faces.

Part of this could be due to the technical advancements we all hope to see from game to game. That said, the latest Call of Duty games are some of the most space-hogging you can get today, and significantly larger than even their immediate predecessors.
