Was looking at Best Buy's listing for the Death Stranding LE PS4 Pro and saw this at the back of the packaging. It says "55GB Minimum" so I guess it's not accounting for a potential day one patch.

Smaller than expected, but very welcome!
Yeah agreed. How big was Spider-Man's base game? I think it and Death Stranding are in the same ballpark.

Vestan, you're insane when it comes to this game. And I mean this in a good way!
Thanks dude!

Nice vestan miss your Jordan with the cigar avatar btw
Lool, it's not often I change my avi but Death Stranding hype is getting to me. 🤘

I still expect the game to be on the smallish/short side of an "open world" game.

Probably won't have as much audio content as many other games, so no surprise it's still sizeable.

I just looked up Horizon Zero Dawn's (same engine) GB size (for the complete edition with the expansion) and it's 'only' 48.16 GB

Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition

Earth Is Ours No More

So this is a little bigger.
Base Spiderman is somewhere above 45 GB


Also God of War, not really an open world game but still has a sizeable world is almost 39 GB

God of War

Bold New Beginning

I'm surprised by how reasonable these all are o.O What's the biggest game they've released in terms of filesize? GT Sport?

This thread made me realize Sony open world games are surprisingly small in file size in comparison to their big, gorgeous game worlds.

A lot of AAA games are near 30 or 50 gigs, certainly not 100 lol. I guess that poster got confused with high-res texture packs pushing some games close to 100, or RDR2/Destiny 2, but these are the outliers not the norm.

Juicy, and if that's the back of the PRO edition then I don't know if I can wait much longer on pre-ordering it.

Seems...kinda small considering all the dialogue, cutscenes, etc that are a staple of Kojima games.

Sony first party always smaller than expected with the exception of Last Of Us Remastered. I'm guessing it has something to do with the engine.
