It's 96gb to download. I just finished downloading it myself, as I just bought it too. I think RDR2 is bigger now, like 140gb.

its because the games has 5 Open world areas and on max settings the game is beautiful (i think u can even go 4k textures.) but yeah i guess its normal.
without DLCs the game is about 90Gb i think.

PS: nice pp

It´s got 6 (Definitive Edition) open regions, 2 fully-fleshed DLC stories, tons of random names and titles, tons of upgraded and added gameplay elements and these elements are different whenever you play the core game or both DLCs ... not to mention it also includes extra 2 DLC tribes aside the default ones!

Yeah, understandable why would Definitive Edition be this massive.

Size listings are for the base game.

125GB for me WITH the HD Pack/DLCs.

Its worth it.

Also
The requirement size doesnt include years of patches etc so on, So 70GB isnt far off really..

RDR2 takes 118 GB on my hard drive as for now (large open world with superb graphics etc), and I too was surprised about the SoW size.

Just checked AC Valhalla requirements, it's 50 GB.

Oh, I stand corrected.

Take into consideration if you have the HD Textures enabled and the 4K cinematics enabled.
I have everything BUT 4K Cine installed and its 125GB for me, so 110GB or so sounds plausible

I don't have those packs installed, though with all the dlcs etc, it's 109.25GB on my end.

Games made after 2016 are big. Lots of models, lods for those models, textures, 4k textures, engines are getting bulkier too. Size optimization is thrown out the window in exchange for cinematic content.

Considering everything is digital now you'd think size management would be important. No issue for me though, I got a rack of SSDs and HDDs. :tdealwithit:
