Activision and Infinity Ward have rolled out a new update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and the battle royale game Warzone. The Modern Warfare and Warzone’s Patch update 1.21 is a major one and is available across PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms. The download size is around 20.2 GB for PS4, 31 GB for Xbox One, and 30 GB for PC. However, this would be significantly smaller if you just have Warzone, not Modern Warfare.
