Less than a week now remains before the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and ahead of that impending release, Activision has now revealed the Modern Warfare PC Specifications. As usual, the publisher includes both minimum and recommended specs, but also a range of higher-end specifications. Perhaps the most notable aspect is actually the game’s size, because Activision’s size listing is taking into account what they expect to add in post-launch content as well. All told, it’s a truly massive chunk of data.
The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare PC Specifications
“PC gaming is all about customisation and with Modern Warfare, the team is delivering the most robust set of customisation options ever seen in a Call of Duty game,” says Activision; “[…] This ranges from a variety of graphics settings so you can find your perfect balance between graphical fidelity and framerates, as well as expansive customisation so you can control the game exactly how you want to.”
All told, the Modern Warfare PC specifications are fairly standard for a new game these days. However, Activision lists the game’s size as a whopping 175 GB. According to the publisher, this isn’t actually how big the game will be at launch. Rather, it’s how much space which they recommend players leave available for post-launch content.
