I recently got Far Cry 3 on Steam and before I install it, I was wondering how much space it takes up? Does anyone know how many GB Far Cry 3 requires to install? I'm hoping to get some help with this, as I'm looking to make sure my computer has enough storage to run it properly. If anyone has any knowledge or experience with this, I would really appreciate it if you could share it with me. Thanks in advance.

Far Cry 3 requires 8 GB of free storage space on your device. However, this is only for the base game; if you have any additional downloadable content (DLC) or expansions, you should expect to need more storage space. The exact amount of space needed will depend on which DLC or expansions you have installed. Additionally, if you're playing on PC, you should also keep in mind that your system's graphics settings will affect how much storage space is needed for the game.

Far Cry 3 requires 8GB of available storage space in order to install and play the game. This includes both the single-player and multiplayer components. The exact amount of storage space you will need to install the game will vary depending on the version you have purchased and the language options you have chosen.

The game also requires a minimum 2GB of RAM and a DirectX 9 compatible video card with at least 256MB of dedicated video memory. If you are playing the game on PC, you will also need to install Direct X 9.0c.

When you first install Far Cry 3, the game's two components (single-player and multiplayer) are about 2.7GB in size. Additional patches may be released from time to time, which can add up to a few extra gigabytes.

Finally, you should also consider the space needed for game saves. Depending on how long you play, and how often you save your progress, the amount of storage space needed for game saves can range from several hundred megabytes to a few gigabytes.
