This is the price for 4K and Raytracing.

That's nice. I can play the campaign, beat it and uninstall it and install the multiplayer.

Being that size on day 1 is absurd. God knows what size it will be 6 months down the line with all patches and updates.

Just started my preload on PS4. Damn Staggered release.
Playstation doesn't appear to have a dedicated Zombies install which is beyond frustrating as that's the only mode I'm really interested in. It'll be interesting to try and figure out which bit of the install Zombies does actually live in.

wow wow wow theres dead ops arcade???
Dead Ops Arcade 3 Yep

With that amount, I'm expecting one or two new Series S SKUs with additional storage throughout its lifetime. Even if Series S does not need Ultra HD textures, it's only gonna get worse from here.

Ray tracing data at 11GB? I didn't know ray tracing needs disk space. For what?

Disappointing. You're saving like 20GB of an almost 200GB install if you want to play multiplayer with all the graphical bells and whistles you just upgraded your console for.

Is selective downloading available on other platforms?

That will be up to developers, basically. The PS5 FAQ has this :

Similar to PS4, PS5 games can offer a feature called "Preferred Install" that allows players to choose which part of a game to install first. This can allow a player to prioritize access to a particular mode or feature. An example could be prioritizing the installation of the single-player or multiplayer component of a game.

In supported PS5 games, players can also choose to remove specific modes or content they no longer want in order to free up storage space. Developers will ultimately determine the level of support offered for these features, but the goal is to maximize storage flexibility.

This kind of thing looks great, we should have always had this on every console.

People playing MP should care more about stable 60fps than 4K visuals.

HD textures and RT are for the campaign

I'm really interested to see side by side comparisons with the One X version. I only paid for the standard Xbox One X version since I'm still not sure which console I'm going to get next year.

Reading the linked Reddit thread, the guy who posted it is expressing that you can indeed ditch the campaign, and that in his use case by ditching everything except MP he got it down to 60GBs. Actually really dope to have this level of control over it.

Great to see them itemising downloads. If Activision are supporting it, pretty much means all will.

This needs to be standard, across the board.

Wow. Amazing news!

OP (Raigor ), I think you need to rephrase the Title, think this is huge news.

Modern Warfare had selective installs as well. It is a cool feature and I hope more devs use it, games are only going to get larger size wise.

What's the install size if you want to do Warzone and literally nothing else?

On the one hand, ow my solid state drive capacity (assuming the fully loaded PS5 version takes up a similar amount of space, that's nearly a third of the drive taken up by a single game), on the other hand it looks like you can jettison most of that space if you're only here for multiplayer and Zombies.
