very nice.

You have to download the bit part first in the Store, and whenever Steam gets the bit part. Then it will find the update when Searching for Updates screen appears.

I think Jorg said in the last Twitch Q&A (or maybe the Twitch Q&A before that) that they were planning to change World Updates so that you don't have to update the game just to get the World Update. I assume that means, when this is done, we can just get the World Updates from the Content Manager, and there would be no updates to the core code of MSFS.  Anyways, that's their plan for the future.

OK, now Steam has found the update 😁

Steam version is ready now, about 15 minutes after the store version as usual. Have not seen the full release notes, nor any reports yet of how Portugal etc. looks.

It is massive after update and content manager updates. A few more updates like this and folks with 500 GB drives will need a new one!

I don't normally get the World Updates straight away but was very keen to see this one. 

Updating now, albeit at a snails pace. 

Files are so small that the downloading cannot build up speed before it switches to DLing a new little file.

Now on the MSFS forum, they say the whole thing is not as large as first reported.
