how do game patches work?

232 views

Let’s say a game file size is 500MB. If there is a 100MB patch, does the file size go to 600MB? Or does it patch what’s needs and deletes the old files?

The patch would replace a lot of old files if its a performance or bug fix patch. If it’s a feature addition or new content then it would increase the size of the install.
