With Call of Duty: Modern Warfare set to assault consoles (PS4, Xbox One), and PC in a matter of weeks, Activision has now revealed the Modern Warfare PC requirements for both minimum and recommended specs.
Listed over on Battle.net, check out the minimum and recommended requirements below.

What’s interesting here is the 175GB of disk space needed by the game, which is a bit too much People on the Modern Warfare subreddit are even asking if this is a typo, or the game really is just this big (or whether it wasn’t compressed efficiently). Of course, there’s the inevitable day one update as well, which has become standard now for most AAA games to have at launch.
Those who are thinking of getting the game, best prepare your ‘net, and be ready to pre-load since it will take a while.
