The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X currently use 4K UltraHD Blu-Ray drives.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare II, the most recent release in the game franchise, stands as a 72 GB download. They haven’t been making, or using, newer formats that can accommodate these growing file sizes.

While some fans profess to prefer getting games on a physical format, whether that’s an optical disc or game cartridge, it’s becoming increasingly impractical to offer that as an option. It’s strange but common that that is something other game companies and publishers have been doing for some time now. While it’s disappointing news for sure, we should at least commend Remedy for being upfront about the situation, and not try to pass off a retail disc as a copy of the game. Secondly, not releasing a disc helps keep the price of the game at $59.99 / €59.99 and the PC version at $49.99 / €49.99.įinally, we did not want to ship a disc product and have it require a download for the game - we do not think this would make for a great experience either.” It is not uncommon to release modern games as digital-only.
