Days Gone Download Size Pc Full ~upd~ May 2026

Draft review — Days Gone (PC) — download size, full review

Patch History: Has the Size Changed?

At launch, the PC version was exactly 70 GB. Since then, there have been several patches (v1.01, v1.02, v1.04, v1.05, v1.06, and the final v1.07).

• Patches have not drastically increased the size. Each patch is roughly 200 MB – 500 MB.
• However, patches often require "reserve space" to apply. If you have exactly 70 GB free and a 500 MB patch drops, Steam might refuse to install it because it needs to copy files as a backup. Always keep 15-20% free space on your game drive.

On Epic Games Store:

1. Click your profile icon > Settings.
2. Scroll to the game install directory to see available space.
3. Unlike Steam, Epic does not have a built-in cache cleaner, so you'll need to use Windows tools.

2.3. Audio and Localization Files

A frequently overlooked component of "full" download sizes is the audio package. Days Gone features a fully voiced narrative. To prevent CPU bottlenecks during gameplay—where the processor is already calculating horde AI physics—PC ports often utilize uncompressed audio files (WAV or high-bitrate OGG). The game includes localization for multiple languages (English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, etc.). While the Steam download manager allows users to deselect unused language packs to reduce the download size, the "full" default installation includes all these audio streams, bloating the initial payload. days gone download size pc full
