Dead Rising 3 update weighs in at 13GB

4.7

New DLC for open-world zombie game expected this week

A hefty 13GB Dead Rising 3 update has reportedly been released for the Xbox One exclusive.

The update was first revealed in a Tweet from Xbox studio manager Mike Ybarra, who said: "Wow, a 13GB DR3 update? Holy... good thing I have 110mbps".

Publisher Microsoft is yet to officially announce and detail the contents of the update, but we've approached the company to find out what's included.

Operation Broken Eagle, the first of four Dead Rising 3 DLC packs, is expected to be released on January 21. It is speculated that the sizeable update is in preparation for the launch of the new content.

Those who want to play the game without downloading the update can do so by disconnecting the console from the internet. Obviously, Xbox Live becomes inaccessible when doing so.

Operation Broken Eagle will put players in control of Spec Ops Commander Adam Kane, who is on a mission to capture the missing president of the United States. The DLC is the first in a four-part series of game add-ons collectively titled Untold Stories of Los Perdidos.

Operation Broken Eagle will cost $9.99 standalone, with European pricing yet to be confirmed. Follow-up DLC packs titled Fallen Angel, Chaos Rising, and The Last Agent are also scheduled to launch in 2014.

Stedos Not such an impact on the HDD's of the Xbone, but that you have to download 13GB! That's a lot to download on a puny internet connection. Oh well, it better be worth it! I'm sure it will be.

Yeah but for people it can take up to 10 minutes to download COD map packs and that is 1/13 of the size, dayuuum. That's gonna take a while if you have really bad internet.

Lol 10 minutes. Takes me like 2 hours for a CoD map pack. This would seriously take about 24 full hours of downloading for me.

Damn, I feel sorry for you if a map pack takes two hours. I'm pretty sure the worst of the worst isn't that bad...
