Xbox One owners waiting for Borderlands: The Handsome Collection will have to download a hefty day one patch when the title finally goes live. It has been discovered that the Borderlands: The Handsome Collection day one patch for the Xbox One weighs in at 16GB. Broken down, it’s a 3GB download for Borderlands 2 and a 13GB download for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.
PlayStation 4 owners shouldn’t rejoice because they too have to download a day one patch though it’s not as hefty. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection day one patch for PlayStation 4 is 8.3GB.
The day one patch is hefty primarily due to the large size of the Claptastic Voyage DLC for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. This DLC was released recently so it couldn’t be put on the disc which is why gamers will have to sit through the download on day one.
Spokesperson Marion Dreo said “For The Handsome Collection, a large day-one update will be available giving access to Claptastic Voyage and Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2.This update will also address various bugs,” adding that while the update is large it is strongly recommended that all players download this patch before they play The Handsome Collection.
Borderlands: The Handsome Collection goes live for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One tomorrow. It brings Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel as well as all DLC packs released up till now for both titles.
