Remij 5,049 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 They're lowering the install size Quote For Xbox One and Xbox One S users, the install size of the game will be reduced from 35GB to 10 GB. For Xbox One X users, it will go from 47GB to 25GB. For PC users, it will go from 47GB to 27GB. Subsequent patches will increase this number, but only slightly in comparison to past updates. When prompted to update, it will download and automatically reinstall the full game. Almost half the size of before This is also due to them changing how updating will work in the future, so it's a necessary evil. The best thing is that this just goes to show that they have no intention of stopping supporting this title... because it actually did very well. Awesome shit Link to post Share on other sites
