The Elder Scrolls Online’s PS4 Patch is 15.9GB!

The Elder Scrolls OnlinePS4 patch is a colossal 15.9GB.

The reason for this is that it contains all the content from the PC version’s first three patches, developer ZeniMax Online Studios noted on Twitter.

As such, it makes numerous changes to the game’s performance, UI, questing and bug-fixing.

The full patch notes are as follows:
