Starfield preloads are now live on Steam so you can get ahead of its massive file size

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support

With Starfield releasing in a week, and early access beginning in a handful of days, players are getting set up to face what could be an incredibly lengthy download and a slight delay in take-off. But, for those who are keen to get stuck in from the moment the game unlocks, there are a few ways around these launch day download times. 

Pre-loads for Starfield have been made available for those who are jumping in via Steam, so as of today you will be able to get ahead of the curve and start tackling the staggering 134.9GB file size, which is a good bit larger than those playing via Xbox Series X|S. 

If you’re a proud owner of the premium edition on Xbox, you’ll have to download 116GB, or 100GB if you’re settling for the Standard Edition. Regardless of which platform you’re using, it'll be a lengthy download, so it’s definitely worth pre-loading now you have the chance. 

For players on PC via PC Game Pass, or those on Xbox Series X|S, preloads for the title have been available for almost two weeks, so there’s already been an ample amount of time to get the game downloading. If you’re stuck for storage, you might want to check out our list of the best Xbox Series X hard drives and SSDs to ensure you’ve got more than enough space in advance of launch day too. 

There are only a few more days until you can join Constellation and finally dive into the world of Starfield, and after the delays the title has faced before launch, making things as streamlined as possible by preloading the game in advance is worth considering because the last thing you want to encounter when trying to jump into one of the most anticipated upcoming games of the year is any further delay. 

If you’re looking for a game or two to sink into while you wait for Starfield to unlock, it’s worth checking out our list of the best RPGs, alongside our list of the best single-player games. We’re also anticipating Starfield to become one of the best games on Game Pass, so it’s worth checking out the competition in advance of launch.

Mova V70 Ultra Complete review: a full-featured robovac let down by subpar performance

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Mova V70 Ultra Complete: Two-minute review If you've never heard of Mova as a brand, you're not alone as it was initially only available in select European and South-East Asian countries. The brand, which is owned by Dreame Technology, is now expanding and is supposed to be value-focused side of the company — although you'd be hard pressed to believe that when its latest flagship robot vacuum costs upwards $1,000 / £1,000 / AU$3,000. However, the Mova V70 Ultra Complete brings everything you expect from such an expensive robovac, including some industry-first features that are now being adopted by other brands. This includes suction that's a whopping 42,000Pa at its maximum, as well as the impressively long reach of the side brush and mopping arm (12cm and 17cm respectively). I even love the fact that it eliminates the need for dust bags by us...
