Resident Evil 2 Download Size Revealed

Resident Evil 2's download size has been revealed courtesy of the Microsoft Store and it seems that it won't tax your bandwidth too much. According to the listing on the Microsoft Store, the Resident Evil 2 download size is 21.07GB for the Xbox One. Safe to say that the PS4 and PC versions of Resident Evil 2 should have a similar file size. Though those listings should go up on the PS Store and Steam closer to launch. The Resident Evil 2 release date for PS4, Xbox One, and PC is January 25, which is the same day Kingdom Hearts 3 is out in Japan.
