    on PC they will start automatically if one is available, when you open the launcher.

    on consoles they will download like normal console updates

    If you're on PC and normally by-pass the launcher, starting the game directly from the .exe then you'll need to run the launcher on patch days so it downloads.

    Oh and if you use any addons you'll need to look out for updates to those (which come anywhere from the day of the patch to weeks/months after depending on how easy it is to update and how much time the creator can devote to it).

    But other than that you don't need to do anything, the whole process is automated.

    cool! thanks!

    I leave my PC on with launcher open when a patch is expected. The PC must be set to it does not hibernate or shut down if idle.
