Call of Duty: Ghosts PC install is 50GB

4.4
Call of Duty: Ghosts will take up a whopping 50GB of drive space when installed on your PC, blocking installation of other games by the sheer weight of its many assets.

For comparison purposes, BioShock Infinite takes up 20GB minimum with 30GB recommended, Saints Row 4 is 10GB, and Battlefield 4 wants 30GB.

The hefty install size was revealed in the shooter’s PC requirements, which also include a surprisingly high-end minimum GPU. Here’s the full spec list, courtesy of Nvidia:

Minimum System Requirements
OS: Windows 7 64-Bit / Windows 8 64-Bit
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 2.66 GHZ / AMD Phenom X3 8750 2.4 GHZ or better
RAM: 6 GB RAM
HDD: 50 GB HD space
Video: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti / ATI Radeon HD 5870 or better
Sound: DirectX Compatible Sound Card
DirectX: 11
Internet: Broadband connection and service required for Multiplayer Connectivity. Internet connection required for activation.

No word yet on how large the download will be for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions, but it’s likely to be in the same ballpark. Ghosts is also coming to Wii U. Current-gen versions arrive on November 5, with next-gen versions due when the hardware launches later in the month.

daRealRush 50GB of Space! How is it 50GB of Space, it is a very small game. It has very few guns, along with very small maps! How is it, 50GB of space?


How do you know the maps are small and it doesnt have a lot of guns? Do you actually understand ANY game development/computer science theory?


Actually he's right, and your wrong. Stop trying to sound smart as there is no "theory." I know the reason its 50GB's, but I'm not going to say it just so you can pretend to know what your talking about. Find out, then come back to talk bro.

Seriously, do people not understand that the INSTALL is 50gb? The actual game on disk will be no where near that close.

The PC version will have to have updated HD textures (large files), along with a tonne of extras needed for this kind of game. Look at BF4, thats going to be 50-60GB and the graphics have barely imrpoved since BF3

Immerse Man...

Just one thing after another, in addition to my GPU and PSU, I'll have to get a new HDD.

I'm just glad HDD's are relatively cheap, and don't need to break the bank while purchasing.


If you need to buy a new GPU and PSU for cod, you must be new to PC gaming, so don't whine about having to buy new components.

Chloe_xD 50GB wow that's allot and 64 bit windows not many people have this :/ x


Well the chances are, if you're playing a game like battlefield 4, you have 8GB RAm and you'd need 64Bit just for that.


If you meet the minimum requirements, you more than likely have a 64bit OS.

KingOG 50GB? That's too much for some people. Mine's only 250GB...


250gb hardrive and still have the minimum requirements? You made a silly choice when buying a HDD, obviously.
