The game has been installed since launch, haven't played in a few months, and decided to try to play tonight, but it shows as as "Retry" on the icon, so I click it. I see it says 'Fixing' for a moment then get the "Unable to download there is not enough storage space on your device".
And of course the error doesn't say how much storage space is needed. I've got 20 gigs free, I had just recently uninstalled Assassin's Creed Nexus, and I rebooted the headset as well after getting the error, but am still getting the launch error after restarting it.
Also the game is not showing up under Storage at all.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Gruntled 🙂
The game needs 34 GB free space... even a little more during the install process.
So your 20 GB free space is not enough to install it.
I don't know, what happened to your game and why it's not showing in your storage.
I assume some update failed and now the game isn't properly installed.
I would uninstall/reinstall it.... after unistalling some other apps or deleting screenshots/videos, so there is enough space.
I hope you'll get it work again.🙂

Thanks, I ended up clicking the 3 dot menu in order to uninstall from the Quest, then had to re-download the whole thing again. Luckily the game had cloud save or I would have lost all my progress.
I just wish the "Unable to download there is not enough storage space on your device" error would actually say how much space you need to clear to install the game. Very frustrating have to find out where the install size info is buried on the device and not very obvious.

Glad,that you got it work again👍
........ would actually say how much space you need to clear to install the game.
Yes, would be a nice feature..... although..... as for me, I usually know the size of a game before I start the installation.

Yeah the installation sure, but even other similar programs like Steam will actually show how much space it show much is neded for an update (like right now I have a pending update for Ragnarock on Steam and it shows Update queued 0 B of 32.4 MB). I kind of wish Quest would do the same for their updates.
