Huge Far Cry 6 patch now released for consoles

Even though we weren't fully convinced by Far Cry 6, it still had a lot of promise. And maybe it can fulfil a lot of that today as a major patch has been released. Ubisoft has revealed both the update file sizes for the different formats and a patch list. Amazon Luna, PC and Stadia will have to wait a little longer though, but it is coming "as soon as possible".

Here are the file sizes needed for the game, with surprisingly big differences between PlayStation and Xbox:

Today:
PlayStation 4: Between 49 GB and 60 GB depending on region
PlayStation 5: ~90 GB
Xbox One: between 13 GB and 19 GB
Xbox Series S/X: between 14 GB and 20 GB

TBD:
PC: 54 GB + 47 GB for HD Texture Pack
