Digital pre-orders for Gears of War 4 on Xbox One are available for pre-loading right now! The official Gears of War Twitter account let the details loose around an hour ago along with some information on the file size.

Good news! #GearsofWar4 pre-load for XB1 digital pre-orders begins later today at 5pm PDT (12am UTC). Expected download size will be 54.6GB.

The PC version is not up for pre-loading currently, but is scheduled to be ready before launch. At 80 GB on PC, I would definitely prefer the game files be ready on launch instead of waiting roughly two hours for a download. Some people might also be waiting about 12 hours (since the US has crappy internet).
