If you’re one of the many who’ve pre-ordered A copy of Gears of War 4 for Xbox One, then we got some good news for you. It has been confirmed that as of 5PM PDT / 8PM, that you’ll be able to start the pre-load of Gears of War 4. Keep in mind that the release of the game isn’t for another 2 weeks so this gives you ample time to get your downloaded start and beat the rush of users when the game is released. The game isn’t exactly small either, clocking in at just under 55GB. I hope you have some space on your Xbox One for it and if you don’t, you best make some.
Good news! #GearsofWar4 pre-load for XB1 digital pre-orders begins later today at 5pm PDT (12am UTC). Expected download size will be 54.6GB.
