If your update seems to be taking ages to download, try the usual tips: cancel or pause any other downloads and streams; move as close to your Wifi router as possible, and connect up to it with an ethernet cable if you can. Hopefully, that will speed things up, and you\u2019ll be playing the latest version of CoD in no time.<\/p>\n<p>In other CoD news, the rumours are intensifying around <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/call-of-duty-vanguard-release-date-ww2\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\">Call of Duty: Vanguard<\/a>, which is rumoured to be the next WW2-themed game in the series.
