Bungie’s Destiny Will Require 60GB Even If You Do Not Buy The Taken King


The developers of the game recently announced that a new update is going live on September 8








Activision Blizzard Inc.’s (NASDAQ:ATVI) Destiny has been getting a lot of attention lately and there are big changes coming to the game. Of all the exciting changes that are coming in, looks like this one is not going to be taken well by some of the fans.



Bungie, the developers of the game recently announced that a new update is going live on September 8 and judging by the download size of the update, it will bring the total install size of the game up to a whopping 60GB.

The update is going to clock in at around 18GB on your internet connection. The worst part about the update is that it's going to be applicable to all Destiny’s players. It won’t matter if you buy the upcoming DLC for the game: The Taken King, as the update will be applicable and mandatory since it’s an online game and lacks any offline components.

The news was delivered through a post on Destiny’s official website. The post discloses the minimum size requirement for the previous generation consoles, which is 30 GB. An additional 10 GB will be required for playing the Taken King. Players with previous generation consoles must check if they have the required space for download. Bungie also said that the game may require more space as there could be additional in-game updates that may be applicable later on.


Destiny: The Taken King is set to release on September 15 for Sony Corp.’s (NYSE:SNE) PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Microsoft Corporation’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) Xbox One and Xbox 360. The game is bringing major changes to the basic play-out of the game and also to specific areas which didn't go well with the players, such as the light based levelling system.
