Bungie has parted ways with Activision-Blizzard and is now free to go as wild and crazy as it wants without a suit breathing down their neck muttering \u2018how can we bleed their bank accounts dry\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Bungie has perhaps gone a little bit too wild though &#8211; Destiny 2 and its upcoming Shadowkeep expansion will be moving to Steam from Battle.net for the first time, and the huge update will pump Destiny 2\u2019s installation size up to a gargantuan 165GB. To the best of our knowledge, this would make Destiny 2 the largest video game of all time.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Destiny 2 is currently around an 85GB install on PC and 90GB consoles, rising to an estimated 105GB when it comes to Steam on October 1st. Throw the Shadowkeep expansion into the mix and Bungie\u2019s promotional email informs players Destiny 2: Shadowkeep will require an estimated 165GB of hard drive space. It\u2019s unclear whether this is just the PC version or also the console editions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"blog-expandable-img\" src=\"http:\/\/pic.obilesky.com\/game\/2915\/hjpbsbqmqci.jpg\" title=\"Destiny 2 Shadowkeep Install Size\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto\"><\/p>\n<p><ins class=\"adsbygoogle scrolling-ad-item\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0052787453283862\" data-ad-slot=\"2741061911\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201c165 GB hard drive storage space required as of 10.01.19.

In terms of size, it\u2019s been compared to Destiny 1\u2019s final expansion, Rise of Iron.<\/p>\n<p>Destiny 2: Shadowkeep comes to PC (via Steam), Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on October 1st.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>System Requirements Low vs Ultra Screenshots GPU Performance Chart CPU List That Meet System Requirements&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2250,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[448,574,446,351,447],"class_list":["post-2249","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-game-news","tag-bungie","tag-claims","tag-destiny","tag-expansion","tag-shadowkeep"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2249"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2249\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
