Why Pre-Install now for something that is playable in October? Do people still have such slow speed internet or do people really like blocking off their HDD/SSD space for nothing?

It’s a 200-300MB file

 

once the full game is available for download, the small file installed gets an auto-update to download the full game

 

You don’t need to do anything after the pre-install, everything happens automatically and you can start playing as soon as game unlocks 

 

quite a smart system from Xbox

The pre install just puts a small dummy file. Closer to launch it'll download the full game so you can play it at launch.

So essentially the use of this is - you don't have to go to the store page and click on the "Download" button close to launch, but instead do that now? Is that the benefit?

Also, it adds to the excitement leading up to the launch

It's a fire and forget approach that offloads this process and let's you forget that you need to pre-load the game in the first place. It's immensely helpful for me since I've never had to pre-load games I care about and they're always available to play on launch day. It's akin to a bot which auto-adds PS5/XSX to your cart.

Looks great . Wish they release a physical disk for PS5 here in India. 

 

Also wondering how this game will hold up on Switch :scratchchin:

 

Cloud version. So long as you are in USA/EU/Main Asia (Where Latency is not an issue), it should hold up as well as PC/Console versions. Here in India - it will look good, but might be unplayable due to input lag and latency.
