How to Preload CoD Modern Warfare

Just like other titles, preloading and downloading CoD Modern Warfare is pretty straightforward.

Depending on the platform of your choice, head to wherever you purchased the game.

From there, you’ll see a preload option. Make sure you have enough space for the game and then click on it to download.

At the moment, only the Xbox One is available for preloads, though PC and PS4 should be coming soon.

Installations Packs

Something that is going to be different about his Call of Duty installation is that the game is actually going to be split into five different installations.

  • Two campaign packs
  • One multiplayer pack
  • One Spec Ops pack
  • One “Hub” game

Additionally, players that purchased the operator or enhanced edition will need to download that pack as well.

Now that you know what you’re downloading, let’s look at how much space you’ll need.

What is the Install Size?

While it was originally stated that CoD Modern Warfare would only be around 45 GB, it turns out it’ll be a fair bit more.

You’ll need to free some space for this one, as the game is going to require over 100 GB for everything we’ve heard so far.

Xbox One137 GB
PS4TBC
PC (Rumored)175 GB

As you can see, the PS4 size has yet to be announced. It also should be noted that the PC install size of 175 is rumored, not necessarily confirmed yet.

It is always important to keep in mind that the install size is likely to change over time, as Activision and its developers will implement plenty of patches and updates after the game releases.

Since you’ll have some time to preload the game’s large installation size, it’ll be no time until you and your friends are reliving your favorite CoD Modern Warfare maps in this highly anticipated shooter.

Hopefully, this guide helped you figure out how to preload CoD Modern Warfare.
