  • COD: Black Ops Cold War Takes Up Nearly Half Of Xbox Series S' Storage Space

Xbox Series S files were expected to be much smaller than their Series X counterparts, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Activision has revealed more information about how much space you'll need to clear in order to install Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War – and the numbers are pretty staggering. Most troubling is the file size on Xbox Series S, which clocks in at 136GB, nearly half of the available storage space.

Xbox Series S files were expected to be much smaller than their Series X counterparts, due to its lower resolution of 1440p. That doesn’t seem to be the case with the latest Call of Duty title, and Series S owners' poor solid state drives are going to pay the price. Recent reports indicate that the affordable new Xbox only has about 364GB of storage – the rest of it being used to house the operating system and other internal software. After slapping Black Ops Cold War onto the drive, you'll be left with just 228GB.

Here's the full rundown of file sizes by console:

  • PS4: 95GB
  • PS5: 133GB
  • Xbox One: 93GB
  • Xbox Series X/S: 136GB

While the file size on Series S might be the most noteworthy part of this announcement, it's also worth pointing out the discrepancy between Xbox and PlayStation consoles. Both current-gen and next-gen versions of Black Ops Cold War will be smaller on PlayStation consoles – it's not much, but every GB counts nowadays. However, you'll at least be able to uninstall portions of the game you don't play, helping you save a bit of space.

The PC version is a bit different– here's what you can expect.

  • Multiplayer: 35GB
  • Full Game: 82GB
  • Full Game (Ultra Graphics): 125GB

We knew that next-gen games were going to be massive, but the storage space on both PS5 and Series X are large enough to account for this. Series S, on the other hand, seems to be getting the short end of the stick. If developers aren't able to reduce file sizes for the weaker console, players are likely going to run out of space before the end of the year.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will take up just under 190GB of storage on your Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.

A Reddit post (opens in new tab) published to the Xbox Series X subreddit has revealed that Activision’s latest Call of Duty game will be approximately 187.9GB to install upon release. To minimise file size, you’ll also be able to control what part of the game to install, so you can choose to go without Black Ops Zombies mode, saving you around 8GB of free space. Cold War also has an option to download HD texture packs, which comes in at a whopping 38GB, as well as ray-tracing data which comes in at around 12GB. Still, even without the optional texture packs and modes, the install size will still be massive.

Xbox Series X comes with a 1TB SSD already installed, so downloading Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will take up a fair bit of your storage. There's no word yet on the Xbox Series S file size, but considering the console has around 364GB of storage, let's hope that it's a fair bit smaller. 

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will launch on November 13 for all available platforms including the PS5 and Xbox Series X and S. If you’re still on the lookout for a next gen console, we’ve got you covered with our PS5 deals, as well as our Xbox Series X deals.
