As a seasoned gamer with decades of hard drive filling memories, I must say the news about Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 leaving no stone unturned when it comes to storage requirements has left me scratching my head – or should I say, scouring my hard drive for space. With a minimum of 137GB on Xbox Series X/S and a whopping 145GB on the PlayStation version, one can’t help but wonder if Treyarch is trying to create a digital black hole in our gaming lives!
Pre-release versions of “Call of Duty: Black Oops 6” have leaked, verifying its large minimum file size of 137GB. Although the game won’t be available until October 25, an early physical copy for Xbox Series X/S has surfaced online, disclosing the storage space the eagerly awaited shooter will need on users’ consoles and emphasizing that it will demand a constant internet connection for all game modes, including single player.
Since the release of Call of Duty: Warzone, the file size of each new game has steadily grown, and it appears that Black Ops 6 will follow suit. Activision has previously tried to minimize the enormous file size of the Call of Duty series, but matters became more complex when the studio decided to consolidate all Call of Duty games under one application called Call of Duty HQ. This decision has led to ongoing confusion over the years, with fans even being misled into believing that Black Ops 6 would require a massive 300GB storage space. However, Activision later clarified that this is the total file size for all titles available on Call of Duty HQ, including games like Modern Warfare 3, Warzone, and the upcoming Black Ops 6.
As an enthusiast, I’m thrilled that Black Ops 6 won’t gobble up a whopping 300GB of my console storage, but a leaked retail copy suggests that at least on Xbox Series X/S, I’ll need around 137GB of free space. Keep in mind though, this is the minimum requirement, so the actual game file might be even larger. It hasn’t been officially announced by Treyarch Studios yet, but it seems likely that there will be a day-one patch on October 25, adding a few more gigabytes to the size of Black Ops 6.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 File Size Revealed
Regarding CharlieIntel’s previous post, a Twitter user named HustlerRelic shared an image that seems to showcase the PlayStation 4 edition of Black Ops 6. Although the artwork and details resemble those of the Xbox Series X/S version, it seems that PS4 users might need to make room for more storage, as the packaging indicates a minimum requirement of 145GB free space. Keep in mind that this doesn’t account for any potential day-one updates.
In addition to its large file size, the leaked version of Black Ops 6 also emphasizes that it demands a constant internet connection for all game modes. Although this isn’t entirely surprising, it seems some fans may have overlooked this detail when Activision initially announced it earlier in the year. On Reddit, one user has expressed their intention to request a refund upon realizing the always-online requirement, stating they don’t approve of such games.
