Storage space can be expanded through external drives, connected via USB 3.0. These can be used for the same functions as the internal drive, such as game installations.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a selection of launch titles and their respective install sizes, as per NeoGAF. Note these aren&#8217;t officially communicated install sizes. Where install sizes haven&#8217;t been discovered, the game is listed as a placeholder.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Assassin\u2019s Creed IV: Black Flag &#8211; 20GB<\/li>\n<li>Battlefield 4 &#8211; 33GB<\/li>\n<li>Call of Duty: Ghosts &#8211; 39GB<\/li>\n<li>Crimson Dragon<\/li>\n<li>Dead Rising 3 &#8211; 19GB<\/li>\n<li>FIFA 14 &#8211; 8GB<\/li>\n<li>Fighter Within &#8211; 9.2GB<\/li>\n<li>Forza Motorsport 5 &#8211; 31GB<\/li>\n<li>Just Dance 2014 &#8211; 22GB<\/li>\n<li>Killer Instinct &#8211; 2.4GB \/\/ 3.4GB for full install, can play after downloading 2.4GB<\/li>\n<li>Lego Marvel Super Heroes<\/li>\n<li>Lococycle &#8211; 13GB<\/li>\n<li>Madden NFL 25 &#8211; 12GB<\/li>\n<li>NBA 2K14 &#8211; 43GB<\/li>\n<li>NBA Live 14 &#8211; 9GB<\/li>\n<li>Need for Speed: Rivals<\/li>\n<li>Powerstar Golf &#8211; 3.9GB<\/li>\n<li>Ryse: Son of Rome &#8211; 34GB<\/li>\n<li>Skylanders: Swap Force &#8211; 15GB<\/li>\n<li>Xbox Fitness &#8211; 246MB<\/li>\n<li>Zoo Tycoon &#8211; 2.6GB<\/li>\n<li>Zumba: World Party &#8211; 24GB<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This adds up to a whopping <strong>587GB<\/strong> &#8211; meaning external storage expansion is pretty much a necessity for any serious gamer. This is before you even begin to touch other media services.<\/p>\n<p>Users have noted that games seem to begin installing the moment the disc is inserted. Games also appear to be playable partway through installation, as evidenced by Call of Duty: Ghosts being playable after reaching 51% of its installation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_60138\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Xbox-One-rear-ports-Polygon.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-60138\" class=\"size-large wp-image-60138\" alt=\"Xbox One rear ports.
