Basically, adding to, updating, and packaging games into one collection is a double-edged sword.

until you realize that multiple games in one package means that much more storage space taken up. Getting whole remastered collections is awesome. And then there are remasters of games you loved that were previously stuck on obsolete consoles. Even if they started a certain size upon initial release, they can easily balloon up to a surprisingly massive extent. Updated by Jouanna Bondakji: Thanks to the ability to update games even after release, there will always be games that have huge file sizes. Here are some of the worst offenders on Steam. Some games in particular really ramp up the file size to the point where it's ridiculous.

Patches, updates, and DLC can also contribute to bigger file sizes, and since those things are very commonplace now, you'll most likely have a bigger game in a month than you did on day one. Related: Nintendo Switch Games With The Biggest File Size And How Many GB They Take
