Lol. 61GB Wut.

According to further data seen by VGC, Shadows delivered the second-highest Day 1 sales revenue in the franchise's history, behind only Valhalla. Notably, it did so launching in March, when other series entries arrived during the more lucrative Thanksgiving season, and did not benefit from the pandemic boost enjoyed by Valhalla.

Shadows marked Ubisoft's best-ever Day 1 launch on the PlayStation digital store, was the most wish-listed Ubisoft title of all time, and generated over 11 million hours watched on Twitch — the strongest start for any recent Ubisoft title, including Valhalla. Significantly, PC activations represented around 27% of total activations, with Steam playing "a significant role" in that performance.

Rage Baiters Trying to Explain Why This is Bad

Agreed there is no way that it should be that big of a file size.  There been a lot of games that been way too big recently.  RE4 Remake and Dead Rising Deluxe Remastered come to mind both of those games should have easily been half the size they currently are.

Further checking, it's actually 61GB on PC and 48GB on Xbox but still, Lol.

Seeing IJ premium at £99 and playing Alan Wake 2 really shows how Remedy undersold AW2 for £65 (the expansion pass edition) .. that IJ DLC better be pretty big to justify that price.

I guess we get the 'big' spring sale soon considering the amount of deals are that low, while not so cheap I picked up Legacy of Kain SR 1/2 Remastered.

yup, been waiting for the spring sale.

You havn't bought enough yet =p

There's some digital only games I got my eye on lol

Lol this will bring AoE 4's achievement count to 145. Never touching AoE 2's over 300 achievements though
