Been wondering how much Xbox Series X storage space you can expect? IGN recently had a chance to test out the forthcoming console, and released some information about it. According to them, there will be 802 GB of storage space available. Let’s look into the details.
Xbox Series X Storage Space is Limited to 802 GB
IGN explains, “Let’s talk about storage next. It’s no secret that game installation sizes are only getting larger, and monthly ISP bandwidth caps are a concern for many gamers (in fact, I blew up mine for the first time ever while downloading a ton of games to test out on the Series X), so you’ll need to use your 1 terabyte wisely. To be clear, it’s 802 gigabytes of usable space, after OS and system files.”
So, what are your options if you start running up against that limit? Well, you can uninstall some stuff so you can install new games. But you may not want to do that. If you don’t, you can either use a USB 3.1 external hard drive, or you can get the $219.99 Seagate 1 TB expansion for an additional 920 GB. While that is expensive, it may spare you from some inconveniences. You’ll need to decide whether it might be worth it for you or not.
Now you know what you can expect in terms of Xbox Series X storage space. It would be great if there were more space, but at least there are some options for increasing it.
