Gears of War 4 pre-load includes the day one patch

4.7

If you’re pre-loading Gears of War 4, you won’t have to download anything on launch day.

Now that the pre-load for Gears of War 4 is available to both Xbox One and PC players, some are beginning to wonder if there’s a patch in works to be released on launch day.

Many games drop a patch at the very last minute – launch day, as developers are usually hard at work on content right up until the official release date. For Gears of War 4, this won’t be the case.

Rod Fergusson, studio head at Gears of War 4 developer The Coalition confirmed on Twitter earlier that the day one patch content is part of the pre-load.

Zero - it's all there now. #GearsofWar4 https://t.co/jEN0u5zUD4

Nick Dumbest thing ever is day one updates. You download the game, then have to update it right away. Why not just update it while it's downloading.

You make a great point nick

Nothing more annoying than day one updates, all you wanna do is play. Nooo, you have to wait to download an update

I may but this game this year or what until the price comes down a bit. That's cool though that you don't have to download anything on launch day. The game is going to be good for sure I know anyways.
