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.

That's still pretty fast, and will be done before you know it. Most people have internet below 10mbps


My internet is 110 mbps! so it shouldnt take long at all for me


You are a pretty lucky guy to have internet that fast. You would be able to download things around 200 times faster than me -_-

Bloomy 13G is ridiculous just for a DLC. Bigger than a Battlefield update.

Yeah I finally got cable down my road this last fall, my internet is 15-20 mbps usually but that is dedicated to my console only. I have 2 different 3mbps connections as well, one is a work line and the other is for everyone in the house(usually just facebook/craigslist type of stuff). Up until i got cable the 3mbps was the fastest internet i could get. I love having a good internet, but having 3 connections is just a bonus.


That internet should do, the recommended download speed for the Xbone is 3mbps i think.
