FIX: The estimated install size currently displayed on Black Ops 6 pre-order pages does not represent the Black Ops 6 download size or disk space.

Volumes as shown include full installs of Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, Warzone, and all associated content packs, including all languages, which does not represent a typical single-player installation experience.

Players will be able to download Black Ops 6 at launch without downloading other Call of Duty titles or all language packs.

An estimate of the actual size of Black Ops 6 will be available closer to release.
