It looks like the devs are somehow making playing Call of Duty a ‘heavy duty’ task in itself. At least that’s what one can say regarding the exponentially increasing sizes of the games in the FPS series, each year. Same is the case with Modern Warfare 3 as well. The latest situation is related to a recently rolled out update on PlayStation that wants to eat up storage as if it’s nothing.

Modern Warfare 3 is soon going to make its way globally, with all the content it has to offer. Undoubtedly, all the players want to be prepared with everything, from having the best gear to keeping the COD HQ app updated. Unfortunately, many players must gear up for a potential upset, especially those owning a PS5 or PS4. It looks like you will have to clear a lot of space in order to make the necessary accommodations.

For the uninitiated, last week was similar in terms of players getting frustrated by the increased installation size of Modern Warfare 3. Early reports claimed that it would consume around 220 GB of space on all the supported platforms, thanks to the ‘High-rez’ assets alongside the main content of Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies.

Later, however, it was clarified by the makers themselves. They stated that players can reduce the file size according to what they want to keep. The devs mentioned that the final overall size of MW3 will be actually smaller than the previous COD titles combined.

Players can manage the game’s content by going to a dedicated section. In COD HQ app, there’s the ‘manage files’ option of the launcher menu. There, they can eventually uninstall a specific content which they are not actively playing at a given time. Doing so will reduce the overall installation size.

Following the 100GB update, players can make the necessary adjustments as they gear up for the game’s release on November 10th.
