'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered' release date news: Gameplay leaksters blocked from servers; console download sizes announced

There is now just a couple of days left until Activision officially releases their latest "Call of Duty" shooter video game, "Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare." More importantly, the release of the new game will be accompanied by the release of the highly awaited remastered version of 2007's "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare."

To prepare for the upcoming release, the servers for the game just recently went live, allowing some players to get access to the game's multiplayer mode earlier than expected.

With the servers now up, several players who pre-ordered the "Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Legacy Edition" on the PS4 and on the Xbox One console were able to access game a few days early. However, Activision was ruthless in its decision to keep a tight lid on the game and has now banned several players who had leaked its gameplay on video-sharing websites such as YouTube.

According to reports, several users who posted gameplay videos were apparently banned by the company from accessing the game. Activision had then also advised other players not to leak any details or video of the game ahead of its planned release on Friday, Nov. 4, for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

No specifics were given by the reports as to the identity of the YouTube users that were banned.

To prepare for the arrival of the game, the company has also now disclosed the actual download sizes for both titles. Activision had previously announced that players should at least have 130 GB of free space on their consoles, however, the actual sizes may not necessarily require that amount of space. The file size for "Infinite Warfare" will be around 44.6 GB to 53.6 GB for the PlayStation 4 depending on the region, and 52.1 GB for the Xbox One.

The Remastered "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare," on the other hand, will be 37.2 GB for the PlayStation 4 and 45.85 GB for the Xbox One. No file size details have been announced for the PC version.
