Game Download Time Calculator
Enter values and press Calculate.
About This Tool
Modern games often take 50 to 150 GB, so knowing how long a download will take helps you plan. Internet plans are sold in megabits per second (Mbps), while game sizes are in gigabytes (GB), and there are 8 bits in a byte.
This calculator converts both units for you. Real speeds are usually a little lower than the plan because of network overhead and server limits, so treat the result as a best-case estimate.
How to Use
- Enter the game size in GB from the store page.
- Enter your internet speed in Mbps.
- Press Calculate to see hours, minutes and seconds.
- Add 10 to 20 percent for real-world slowdowns.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my download slower than the estimate?
Wi-Fi quality, server load, other devices and throttling all reduce real speed.
How do I convert Mbps to MB/s?
Divide Mbps by 8. A 100 Mbps connection is about 12.5 MB/s.
How can I download faster?
Use a wired Ethernet connection, pause other downloads and pick a closer download region in your launcher settings.
