Players reported a roughly 30GB download that expanded the game's install to about 91GB, forcing Switch 2 owners to free internal space or use microSD cards to continue playing.

Overview

  • Users reported the update required about a 30GB download and brought the game’s total installed footprint on Switch 2 to roughly 91GB, according to player reports cited by Nintendo Life.
  • Activision initially had not posted details but later published official patch notes describing fixes to stability, UI issues, multiplayer spawn behavior, DMZ bugs, and closed several exploits.
  • The Switch 2 ships with 256GB of internal storage and supports microSD Express expansion, so many owners will need to free space or add a card to install the update and continue playing.
