  The game has yet to unlock for digital owners, but Final Fantasy XV patch 1.02 already went live and it’s quite large.

  As covered last week, the Final Fantasy XV day-one update adds new event scenes, social network features, gameplay tweaks and much more. Patch notes for the day-one “Crown Update” were only provided in Japanese last week, but we now have them in English as well.

  The patch weighs in at 9.3GB on PlayStation 4. The exact size on Xbox One is unknown, but won’t differ that much from the PS4 file size.
