Call Of Duty: Vanguard download size
If you’ve already bought Call Of Duty: Vanguard, then you can pre-load the game now, as the pre-load started on Tuesday 2nd November. The download size for this latest installment of Call Of Duty is not quite as devastatingly large as certain previous titles in the franchise, but the amount of free space you’ll need also varies a bit across the different platforms, as you can see below.
Call Of Duty: Vanguard download size:
PC: 61 GB PC (without Campaign): 36 GB Xbox Series X: 61 GB Xbox Series S: 61 GB Xbox One: 56.6 GB PS5: 64.13 GB PS4: 54.65 GB
Note: on PS5 and PS4, you’ll need a bit more free space than the actual size of the game in order to install it: 89.84 GB for PS5, and 93.12 GB for PS4. But the game itself won’t take up this much space once fully installed.
Call Of Duty: Vanguard high resolution assets bundle for PC
On top of the above download sizes, PC players can choose whether or not to download Activision’s high resolution assets bundle for Call Of Duty: Vanguard, for an extra 32 GB (or 64 GB for Ultra 4K). That means if you’re planning to play at the highest possible resolution on PC, you’ll need to have a whopping 125 GB of free space on your drive. Obviously, future updates may increase or decrease the overall storage space required to keep Call Of Duty: Vanguard installed on your platform, but on launch these are the figures you need to know. Hopefully this quick guide has set you up ready to dive into Call Of Duty: Vanguard on day one!
