The developer Respawn Entertainment has been teasing its highly curious sequel more and more each day. According to recent bits of information, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will come withtown-building mechanicsandfeature new AI companions. While it seems like the sequel aims to offer a much bigger journey in the far galaxy, it appears that it also wants to conquer your storage space with its massive file size of 155 GB.
The system requirements of the sequel were leaked back in December 2022 and opened up with a whopping 130 GB of file size. As if that was not demanding enough, the new requirements of the title added another 25 GB, resulting in a heftier storage space requirement and ultimately requiring many players to do some storage cleanup. It is also worth noting that the sequel is three times larger than its predecessor,Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Orderin terms of storage requirement.
On the other hand, minimum hardware requirements to run Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on your PC do not demand a solid state drive (SSD). But do keep in mind that running the most recent AAA titles like this one on hard disk drives (HDDs) does not bode well due to the slower nature of the storage system.
Even though the minimum system requirements for Respawn’s new title do not demand SSD storage, most players will certainly benefit from using the faster storage solution.
While these requirements belong to the PC version of the game, those who wish to take the role of Cal Kestis on their consoles should not expect a drastic change.
There is no doubt that the regular space requirements of even the most humble titles will continue to increase in the future, which is perfectly understandable considering the ever-improving graphics and the detailed open worlds being offered in modern games.
But once a game places the bar even higher by demanding more space than 120 GB, that’s where the questions rise regarding the storage optimization of the title, and whether its true scale justifies its colossal file size.
We will see whether the long-awaited sequel deserves the massive storage space it requires once it makes its debut on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Microsoft Windows on April 28.
