The game’s size on PC is 139.84 GB. It’s 100.19 GB for the Standard Edition and 117.07 GB for the Premium Edition on consoles, which also comes with a digital artbook and soundtrack, skin pack, and the Shattered Space Story Expansion (when it becomes available).
Preload for Steam users will start on August 30 and require 125 GB of free space

2TB SSDs are going for as little as $60 right now. This isn't much of a problem anymore.

How many players interested in this game are rockin’ a single terabyte? What’s your best guess?
cybersandwich@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I guess if you want to get snoody about it. About half of gamers surveyed by steam have under 1tb( ~49%)
But more importantly 62% of all users surveyed, so this includes people with >1TB, have less than 499GB of free space on their machines. About 40% have less than 249GB. 17% have less than 99GB of free space.
Since you are so good at percentages, maybe you can give me your best guess at the number of people who works have to uninstall games to play this one.

You must know that they were rounding for simplicity’s sake, yet here you are.

I bet it’s much higher than that. 1 TB was standard when I was shopping for gaming laptops last year. Frankly it’s more than enough for most people and in line with the consoles.

What is this fuckery? Unplayable day-1 DLC pre-installed and taking up space on the user’s machine? Jesus christ bethesda

…shouldn’t those match?

The preloaded data could be compressed or it might not include the day 1 patch.
