Update: The official Borderlands account says image isn’t legit and that actual file-size is 25.5GB
The latest game in the Borderlands main series of games, Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition, launches tomorrow on the Nintendo Switch, and the game has certainly been a long time coming. Interestingly, the physical edition states on the back of the box that users require a hefty 62GB of free space to be available on their MicroSD Card. The physical edition of Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition contains the main game, expansions, season pass 1 & 2, and deluxe bonus content. That’s still a whopping download for a physical edition. Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition will be available tomorrow at retailers and on the Nintendo eShop.
Dayum!
Isn’t that over the amount of gbs the original switch has 💀
Yup, 32GB, and even less with the OS (less than 30 I believe) 😂
Pass, not downloading 62gigs… especially on the switch for an old port.
I’ll download 62GB, because i know Borderlands 3 is something i’ll definitely play for countless hours.
This right here is why some 3rd parties bother trying to port their old lazy efforts to Switch. At full price it should be added, because there are suckers everywhere, with more money than sense.
The official Borderlands Twitter has stated that it is, in fact, 23.5 GB total, so the image is probably fake.
That file size is incorrect
Even with the update, it doesn’t change the fact that this is another butchered physical release. Clearly it’s not all on the cartridge, now we just have to see how stingy they were and what size they went with.
Umm okay your article update just leaves even more questions.
How much is the physical cart holding exactly? Is 23.5GB a required download that’s remaining when purchasing the physical copy, or is it the total file size of the game for physical or digital? I can believe that the entire game is only 23.5GB in space, but I have trouble believing this game is using a 32GB cart…
