WD:L Actual Game Size

[mcburgerhams]

How much storage does the game actually take up on your ssd? Here on steam it says 115gb and on Ubisoft and epic it’s only 45gb. I want to know before installing. Ubisoft support was no help

steam is correct. steam and windows are showing my install as 110.29 gb. I have the dlc installed, unsure if it makes a difference, steam isn't showing me their individual sizes.

I believe that was the size of the game on release, before online, zombie mode and Bloodline DLC were added. Now it's 56,5 GB on Ubisoft, because by default the game installs only one language pack and doesn't install Ultra textures. You can delete additional language packs and Ultra textures manually on Steam, so it will take 56,5 GB too.

How do you delete the other language packs? Under properties it doesn’t give me the option to only pick specific language packs

That's why I've said manually. You need to open the game folder and manually delete all huge files that has language names in it.

For example, if you want to delete French language pack, delete 4 files in data_win64 folder:

data_win64\patch_french.dat
data_win64\patch_french.fat
data_win64\sound_french.dat
data_win64\sound_french.fat

And 4 files in London folder:

data_win64\worlds\london\london_french.dat
data_win64\worlds\london\london_french.fat
data_win64\worlds\london\london_sound_french.dat
data_win64\worlds\london\london_sound_french.fat

Repeat this for other languages you don't need.

I'll never understand devs who forces us to download languages we'll never use while using the game....
It was the same thing for Kingdom Come Deliverance which made me uninstall the game at that time "great news guys, we're adding some new languages, now download 20Go+ for it even if you'll never use it!"
