Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III moved to standalone downloads from today

Call of Duty has today announced a big update! Starting from today at 9 AM PT, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III will be moved from the Call of Duty install (COD HQ) and become standalone downloads.

COD HQ is a central hub app that has multiple Call of Duty games in it, and each game is essentially a downloadable add-on for that app. But lately, the users have been criticizing COD HQ for taking up tons of storage space, creating performance issues, and bugs.

This problem will now be solved as it is revealed that beginning tomorrow, Modern Warfare II and Modern Warfare III owners can access them directly after redownloading each title. While legacy content related to MW II and MW III modes within the main Call of Duty install will be automatically removed on August 7 to free up storage space.

It is also revealed that the Call of Duty: Warzone content, such as MWII/MWIII operators and weapons, will not be impacted by this change. This big update could either be for creating space for upcoming Call of Duty games or for improving COD HQ.
