Ubisoft just recently releasedFar Cry 6, but some players are already encountering issues with the FPS. Some fans who purchased a hard copy of the latest title in theFar Cryseries have already been greeted by a tremendous download size.

During the last console generation and into the current one, gamers who purchased physical copies of games would still encounter a download of some sort upon popping the disc into their consoles. This download is notably smaller than if players digitally purchased a game and gamers can save some space on their drives that way. BecauseFar Cry 6is on store shelves now, players have begun reporting how much larger than normal the day-one download is than normal.

Reddit user Rpgfan10 recently posted a photo from theirXbox Series Xwhich showed just how large the download forFar Cry 6is even with a disc. According to the post,Far Cry 6has a 68.51GB file size, with only 735.37MB on the disc itself. Based on Rpgfan10’s internet speed, this download takes about two hours to complete.

Their disappointment with the download compelled Rpgfan10 to compare theXbox discto a drink coaster. Some otherFar Cryfans also voiced their woes in downloading the game despite having a disc version of the game. Although this seems to be a recurring issue with people who purchasedFar Cry 6physically, there may be a valid reason for it.

SomeFar Cry 6fans are defending the game from Rpgfan10’s post, stating that the disc seems to be the Xbox One version and it’s downloading on an Xbox Series X. As a result, the game won’t run from the disc so the fullXbox Series X versionof the game has to be downloaded. These gamers have also assured those who are perturbed by big downloads with disc games that once the Xbox One stops receiving support, the Xbox Series X discs will hold all of the data.

Far Cry 6boasts a big Caribbean open world for players to explore at their own pace, so it isn’t surprising that it has a large download size. During this console generation, gamers have been hit by several massive file downloads, most notablyCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. Ubisoft still has more to add toFar Cry 6as it’s receiving DLC and will be updated as well, so the file size will increase as it evolves.

Far Cry 6is available right now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
