Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has been making a lot of players furious even before its launch. Now that it’s out on a global level, many of them are still upset due to the game. Especially, when it comes to its exponential size on their devices. However, it seems like players owning PlayStation consoles just can’t catch a break in terms of receiving massively sized updates.
Ahead of its release, Modern Warfare 3 caused furor among the fans when reports claimed that it would eat more than 200 GB on all systems. The devs then made several clarifications by mentioning that players can manage the installed content by removing the stuff they are not actively engaged into. But the problem of huge updates is still present no matter what. At least that’s what a recently leaked size has revealed for an upcoming patch for MW3.
Another 100 plus GB of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 update is coming to PlayStation!

PS5 players are not able to understand why the game’s getting so much bigger, consistently, on their devices.
