Nintendo Switch Small Install

As of today, the download required for DC Universe Online on Nintendo Switch is now substantially smaller (decreasing to about 16gb). Additionally, the game's movies and motion comics will be removed from the initial download and made available separately in a free, optional Cinematics Pack DLC (about 2gb). 

Because this is an optimization adjustment to the base game, all players will be required to re-download the game. This can happen in two ways depending on where your specific space limitations.

• If you have installed DCUO onto an SD card with at least 12gb of available, free space, the game will automatically download a patch that will essentially reinstall the base game.
• If you have not installed DCUO onto an SD card or you do not have 12gb of free space, you will need to manually uninstall the game and then initiate the download for the new installation.

Why? Even though we are reducing the installation size dramatically, with the way NS patching works, the new patch must download completely before any changes can be made. This means you will need enough space for the current (large) installation and space for the new patch to patch automatically, which is significant since so many files are being changed.

When in doubt, the easiest way forward is to manually uninstall and then reinstall. We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope you will enjoy the free space.
