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.

Fifty Gigs?! That's insane!!

CaszechPosted:

50GB is way to much for me to download, I guess I'll just stick with console.

This is the reason why I dare not become a PC gamer. Yes the graphics are unbelievable for games, but the sizes for the games are just mind blowing. It would take me about 200 hours to download Call of Duty: Ghosts for PC.

I could imagine the graphics if it needs 50 GB.

-Dragonborn- That is a lot of memory luckily I use a console.


Same here man. I wouldn't get it if I was a PC gamer.


I would still get it, just get a big hard drive.

Harlot Just because it says 50 GB required, doesn't mean its going to use all of that right?


It will use at least almost most of it if it says at least. It may not use exactly that, but it'll use close to that.

Brigand I don't play much PC games but that seems a lot.


It does seem like a lot, especially for people with only 300 GB hard drives.

For a game with not a lot of detail that's a lot

I don't play much PC games but that seems a lot.

I'm actually curious of what will happen with the Xbox 360 version of the game.. will there be multiple discs or a mandatory install. Compressing 50gb to a mere 8gb seems insane
