Common questions
What are the best games that fit a 30 GB drive?
65 well-reviewed games install in 25 to 30 GB, so the largest of them still fit a 30 GB drive or cap while being substantial games rather than tiny ones. The most-played is Fallout 4 at 30 GB. Sizes are read from each game's own Steam page and are the PC download; console versions differ.
Why do install sizes change?
A game's download grows with updates and shrinks when a publisher recompresses it, so the figure here is what Steam listed when we last checked, not a permanent number. It is also the base game: large story or texture packs are separate and not counted.
