Why is the Patch for Windows Store version MUCH larger than the steam updates? (3552 was a 17GB Download on Gamepass vs 200mb on steam) - III - Discussion - Age of Empires Forum

Title says it all, my mates have the game on steam, I’ve got it on Gamepass, (will buy on steam once game is in a better state). For example, previous patch 3552 was a 16 GB download on xbox store for me, was 200MB for friends on steam. Hotfix today is 1.7 GB on Xbox, and is just 40MB on steam. How can this be possible? Is this an issue on my end? Can anybody else confirm size differences?
