The size of the download is basically the size of the installed game. While physical media is still more flexible for players than login-tethered digital copies, the discs won’t contribute much, if anything, to what players are actually relying on.

Oh, and even if you’re staking your hopes on a digital pre-order, things are still complicated. On PC and Xbox One pre-loads have already begun, while the scheduling for PS4 is…well here’s the FAQ so you can figure it out.
