Millions of players have dropped into Warzone 2 to see Al Mazrah for themselves, but many might not be sure if they have enough storage for the download. We’ve got a breakdown of the Warzone 2 file size on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.

Warzone 2 has enjoyed a successful launch, with millions of fans visiting Al Mazrah since it arrived on November 16. Those who played the original battle royale couldn’t wait to see how the sequel improved the formula, and it delivered with new circle mechanics, a revamped Gulag, and plenty of post-launch updates.

But those who were on the fence might only be trying out Warzone 2 for the first time now, wondering if their console or PC can handle installing the game.

Luckily, we’ve put together a guide on the Warzone 2 download size on each platform so you know exactly how much storage to free up.

Warzone 2 file size: PlayStation, Xbox, PC

The base version of Warzone 2 requires a download of between 55 GB and 70 GB on console, and 22 GB and 24 GB on PC. The original Warzone required a notoriously large download to install it, and Infinity Ward have clearly made an effort to make Warzone 2 slightly less of an undertaking.

That being said, it will still take up a fair chunk of storage space, so you may have to clear some room before installing.

Check out a full breakdown of the Warzone 2 file size on each individual platform below:

  • PS5: 83.6 GB
  • PS4: 55.7 GB
  • Xbox Series X|S: 62.0 GB
  • Xbox One: 70.0 GB
  • PC (Steam): 22.6 GB
  • PC (Battle.net): 23.6 GB

  • PS4: 31.4 GB
  • Xbox Series X|S: 68.0 GB

It’s also worth keeping in mind that if you own a copy of Modern Warfare 2, Warzone 2 comes baked into its files. This means if you have an up-to-date version of MW2 installed, then the battle royale sequel is already there waiting for you.
