Star Wars Jedi: Survivor needs a huge amount of hard drive space

A moon-sized amount

When Alice wrote aboutStar Wars Jedi: Survivorearlierthis week, she explored an “almost prohibitively large map.” It turns out those embiggened maps have a knock-on effect: Survivor will require 155GB of hard drive space.

Therest of the system requirementsaren’t too bad, with the minimum recommended including 8GB of RAM and an AMD Ryzen 5 580 or Nvidia GTX 1070 graphics card. The recommended specs kick that up considerably to 16GB of RAM and a Ryzen 5 5600X and Nvidia RTX 2070,

It’s the hard drive space which is the real outlier, however. For context, the vast open worldRed Dead Redemption 2requires around 120GB of space. Presumably Jedi: Survivor contains some extremely high resolution tauntaun testicles.

Here are the rest of the requirements:
