How to Manage Your Black Ops Cold War Installation

It's no secret that modern Call of Duty titles require a significant amount of storage space to live on the hard drives of players. As the current generation of gaming consoles closes with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S recently released, many players have found that it's difficult to manage their game libraries with the Call of Duty titles taking so much space. Because of this, Treyarch offers a solution which allows players to uninstall aspects of the game which they no longer have interest in!

Using the installation management features of Black Ops Cold War, players on all platforms can free up storage space to be used for other games. Finished the Campaign? Uninstall it. No interest in Zombies? Uninstall it. These installation management options are also available for Modern Warfare and Warzone, be sure to take advantage of this if you plan to play both titles.
