How to Uninstall Game Addons

To uninstall game addons, the process varies depending on the gaming platform you are using, such as PS4, PS5, Xbox, or PC, and typically involves accessing the game’s management options and selecting the specific addon you wish to remove. The uninstallation process may also differ based on the type of addon, such as DLC (Downloadable Content), and may require uninstalling the full game and then reinstalling it without the addon in some cases.

Understanding Game Addons and Their Uninstallation
