When you try to pre-download Atomic Heart on GamePass, you will see that instead of a “Pre-Install,” you are getting the “Choose Edition” button. But, similar to any past GamePass release, Atomic Heart is already available for pre-download. We think the Choose Edition button appearing instead of Pre-Install is a bug, and we have a working workaround you can use to get past it and pre-download the game ahead of its release.
How To Fix The Pre-Install Button Not Appearing Issue In Atomic Heart On GamePass
You can fix the “Pre-Install” button not appearing issue in Atomic Heart by manually searching the game and then selecting the standard version. Doing so will show the “Pre-Install” button instead of “Choose Edition.”
Ensure you are not selecting the game from the “Upcoming “Coming to GamePass” section. If you do that, you will still get the “Choose Edition” button that stops you from pre-installing the game.
That said, once you are able to see the “Pre-Install” button on the Atomic Heart product page, you can click on it and select the drive on which you want to install the game, and proceed with the download.
How Big Is Atomic Heart Download? Atomic Heart Game Size
Atomic Heart is 75.2 GB in size and may take more storage upon installation. We recommend installing the game on a drive that has 100 GB plus storage, as whenever you install a game on a drive with a storage limit reached, you will encounter performance issues.
That concludes our guide on how to pre-install Atomic Heart using GamePass. For more on Atomic Heart, keep reading The Profaned Otaku.
