Call of Duty Vanguard: Storage Required and Download Size
Call of Duty Vanguard is going to be a heavy game. In other words, the game will need quite a lot of space on your system. The game is loaded with new Multiplayer and Zombie maps, new game modes, new battle pass, graphics enhancements, and also includes cross-save. A lot of extra resources will have to be downloaded in-game to provide a better user experience. Hence, the game will be requiring several extra GBs on your console and PC storage. According to officials, downloading the entire Call of Duty Vanguard, including in-game resource packages and ultimate versions, will require around 270 GB of space on your storage. But, if you decide to download just the single-player and the basic multiplayer, it may be a little less burdening. Read on to know the download sizes for different devices.

Xbox One and X|S Series
There is no alpha version for the Xbox owners as yet. However, the game’s page on Microsoft Store listed the game’s size as approximately 75 GB. Then again, the Microsoft Store for the France region had listed the size to be approximately 95 GB. So, it appears that the game size is not the same for all regions.
PC (via Battle.client)
No official information on the download size for the Call of Duty Vanguard PC version is out yet. But gathering from the console information, we can expect almost the same download size for PC.
looks like this crazy 270GB size is for everything in the CoD: Vanguard bundle. Individually it should be 75GB. Was starting to think they'd ship the next CoD as an SSD 😅 https://t.co/ppK5LZqBJX pic.twitter.com/e5XqfnnzkK
