I just want to update / already have the game installed?

If you already have the game installed from steam or had a previous update of Plutonium then you can skip the below section and move onto the Plutonium Launcher section.

Installing the base game (BO2)

This section will cover downloading a copy of BO2. Please skip this section if you already have a copy of the game.

Please note we highly recommend buying the game if you do not own it, it is the best way to get a copy of the game files that are up to date and not corrupt or changed in some way. Key sites will give you a decent discount in 2021.

Step 1) From the windows file explorer navigate to My PC, then to Local Disc (C:) and create a new folder called Games
