"It's the same, just lower resolution"

 

[amigastar]

I hope there is something like this on PC Version. I don't have a 4K Monitor so i don't need the extra resolution.

 

[Luigi Mario]

Unprecedented game size.

 

[Buggy Loop]

I hope there is something like this on PC Version. I don't have a 4K Monitor so i don't need the extra resolution.

Nope

It's 155GB

Fucking insane.

Plenty of games already do smaller sizes on Series S.

Nope

Fucking insane.

Not a high res texture pack they include as free dlc?

 

[killatopak]

It’s been a while. Another two disk game.

 

[SlimySnake]

That’s absolutely nuts. Well i guess that’s one way to use next gen horsepower.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Nope

Minimum requirements and recommended is 155GB

 

[AJUMP23]

Extra graphics.

 

[ReBurn]

Hopefully it's worth it. Definitely playing this on XSX or PS5. Waiting to see which one it runs best on.

 

[M1chl]

good

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Hard pass. Didn't enjoy the first game.

 

[TGO]

What about PS5?
Edit: no one knows it seems.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

People want next gen games only but don’t want to upgrade their pc specs or get surprised when they need more free space for those assets, lmao.

This will be the norm now. Get used to it.

 

[MarkMe2525]

I have to believe that one of these numbers will change come launch day. Who knows, it's just I can't remember another case where the difference in file size was so different.

 

[adamsapple]

What about PS5?
Edit: no one knows it seems.

Not known, usually that PS install size twitter account has spaces in advance but not yet, this is known because the pre-load is live on Xbox early.

 

[jroc74]

Thats a massive difference between the two.

Has a Series console game ever been this big of a difference?

 

[Elginer]

That's a huge bitch

 

[BrutalTruth_]

Most games this gen are pushing over 100gb

 

[skyfall]

Next gen consoles need 5tb storage minimum

 

[DaGwaphics]

It's actually good to see, many of the 3rd parties haven't been doing it as much as MS has. That's a lot of textures though.

This is another one for people that say the 1TB base storage is large enough on the X/PS5.

 

[LaughingStock]

No game should have a size over 100gb

 

[simpatico]

There are official texture packs on PC around the size of that difference. I can't think of one where the comparisons between Very High and Ultra were profound, but hey, value I guess.

 

[ResilientBanana]

"It's the same, just lower resolution"

Correct, 4K textures and assets take up 4x the space. If you don't play in 4k you can reduce the size of the game significantly when you only need 1080p (low-res) assets.

 

[Northeastmonk]

Edit: no one knows it seems.

It’s usually two days prior for whatever reason.

Who has Data caps in 2023? This isn't the 90s

 

[Knightime_X]

I DO NOT look forward to 8k anything.

 

[3liteDragon]

What the actual fuck

 

[In Cold Blood]

Damm, that's some heavy 4k textures. This gonna look good.

 

[onnextflix5]

How are they gonna fit that on disc lol, they might aswell do away with discs, just start putting cd keys.

 

[mckmas8808]

Damm, that's some heavy 4k textures. This gonna look good.

This has got to be more than just 4K textures.

 

[Punished Miku]

Thats a lotta Lucas.

 

[Kilau]

It’s the language packs, every one in the galaxy.

 

[Robb]

That’s a crazy difference, and only for improved texture quality?

 

[drotahorror]

I mean sure, but you're also downloading several gigs of languages that you'll never hear. Look how small you can get selective repacks down to now.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Really? PS5 allows you to download only one language in most games. I’m sure the same happens on Xbox

 

[adamsapple]

I mean sure, but you're also downloading several gigs of languages that you'll never hear. Look how small you can get selective repacks down to now.

Language packs alone wouldn't comprise the nearly 100 GB difference between S and X. Clearly there is some VERY liberal usage of 4K assets going on here.

Either that or the game has a lot of video files masking as cut-scenes and they're encoded in 4K on the SX (and PS5 likely) which takes up that much more space versus 1080p encodes on Series S.

[rofif]

Nope

It's 155GB

Fucking insane.

Game sizes peaked years ago. We got terabytes. Nothing wrong with 155gb.
Although I see no reason to include low res textures in the game

Oh for sure. Either lots of high quality assets or some insane bitrate prerendered videos.

 

[kikkis]

I think this is going to be interesting release for series s. We might finally find out if there is any concern for lack of ram on s.

 

[Godot25]

Fucking finally some devs are using Series S profile to get rid of 4K textures for Series S.
Wish more studios were doing that. I know that Sea of Thieves is smaller in size on Series S and from beta it looks like Diablo IV will also be way smaller on console. But it's really pathetic that even many XGS are not using that feature (looking at you Playground Games)

 

[Doctor Hades]

I hope that file size isn't because the game uses 4K pre-rendered cutscenes over real-time rendered ones?

 

[L*][*N*K]

That is massive!

It honestly wouldnt surprise me if this was Microsofts next marketing blurb

He doesn't care, he just wanted to drive by shit post.
