If you're planning to play on PC, the pre-load process is pretty straightforward, especially if you’re used to Steam.

• You’ll see the “Pre-load Game” option.
• When you click that, Steam will begin downloading the required files.

The pre-load size of Mecha BREAK is about 15.30 GB on PC. But don’t forget to leave a bit of breathing room, aim for at least 60 to 65 GB of free space to be safe, especially if there’s a small patch or update on launch day.

Also, if you’ve got an SSD, that’s definitely the way to go. You’ll get smoother loading times and better performance overall.
