How to Preload & Preload Times

As the Tweet below says, you can expect to see the latest game update arrive on August 10th/11th at 4 pm PT / 12 am BST. This is when the update will go live but the game won't automatically update it unless you've set it to do so.

How you get this update is dependant on your platform. If you play on Xbox, you can head to "Manage", then across to "Updates" to find it. You should then see it downloading in the queue.

If you want to play it on PlayStation, you can click to manage the game with the start button and then check for updates. This should then start downloading it for you.

Playing it on PC, you can simply right click on the game and then start the download. Sometimes, these updates don't arrive on time so, if you don't see it on release, just give it a few minutes and it should sort itself out.
