Gaming The biggest switch game?

[Deleted User]

Hi guys, which Switch game currently has the largest download size.
I would think of Wolfenstein 2?

Wolfenstein, Doom and The fractured but whole are the biggest I know, all of them clock in over 20gb.

Depends, are you looking for just base game size? Some games require the base and an update to run (like Wolfenstein 2) in which case are you looking for the largest base + update couple?

I believe DOOM, Wolfenstein, NBA 2K19 (31.5GB)
27.4GB LA Noire
I wonder how big the Witcher game will be.

With newest update NBA 2K19 is the biggest one

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on the Switch eShop, 28.1GB of space is required.

So apparently, NBA2K19 is the largest game to date in terms of file size. Interesting.

All in all I meant Base+Update

That´s one bloated game.

I bet, I bought nba2k19 and that game screwed me with how big it was, I grabbed it when it was $5 and then had to delete a bunch of games to install it on my 128gb. It's really fun, but at what cost!!!!

Wait what? Is there really a 35gb update?

No, it's just 50 GB on PC. They seems to think Switch port will have the same weight as PC release. PS4 release is about 35GB.

Warframe And NBA (dont know wich one) are by far the biggest to my knowledge. Warframe even gives u an excuse after several patches, cause it bigger than the switches main storage. ^^
And NBA had a few news also cause it was bigger than the internal space if i recall right.
EDIT: My bad, warframe was actually 15gb. The excuse was for the remaster to come in effect, u had to redownload the whole game (21 gigs before and 15 gigs new one) again what resulted
in game + patch beeing over 32gb. :/

 

[cheungpakwan]

right now.. NBA 2k20 is the winner of category BIG FILESIZE AWARD
it has 37 GB file size (7GB base game and 30GB update data)

The fractured but whole

How the hell? I can understand the other games, but how is a 2D game so big on Switch?

This is 3D game simulating 2D.
