Call of Duty, Destiny 2: Beyond Light, and the Xbox Series X launch almost killed the UK’s Internet
The PlayStation 5 arrives in a digital edition package, while the Xbox Series S also forgoes the disc drive in favour of a purely digital experience. On launch day, that meant that gamers were downloading a lot of new and old gaming content to their new devices. Internet usage in the UK spiked harder than a volleyball serve (I started watching Haikkyuu on Netflix), with Destiny 2 and Call of Duty being the primary culprits that almost murdered the UK internet on November 10, according to the BBC.
