Assassin’s Creed Shadows is launching March 20, and given its whopping 123 GB install size, it’s likely that you’ll need to offload a game or two to make room for it. If you’re hoping to play it on your handheld PC, be it a Steam Deck, an Asus ROG Ally, or something else, perhaps you’re in need of an extra microSD card. If so, Samsung’s 512 GB microSD card is currently half off at Amazon, costing $37.99.
123 GB sure is a lot of space, but Shadows isn’t even the worst offender when it comes to file sizes. Baldur’s Gate 3 requires 150 GB on PC, and recent Call of Duty games approach that, too. 100+ GB installs are becoming the norm in PC games, particularly in open-world games (Grand Theft Auto 6 is sure to be humongous in size). So, even if you aren’t jumping into any of the aforementioned games, it’s never a bad idea to snag a microSD card while they’re this cheap because you’ll need the extra storage someday.
