Ghost of Yotei file size revealed

The upcoming release of Ghost of Yotei is shaping up to be one of PlayStation’s biggest launches of the year, and players now have a clear idea of just how much space they’ll need to free up on their consoles. According to new details, the sequel will require roughly 85 GB of storage on the PlayStation 5—nearly double that of Ghost of Tsushima.

Launching exclusively for PS5 on October 2, 2025, Ghost of Yotei promises a deeper open world, more dynamic combat, and a new protagonist. With Sucker Punch aiming to expand nearly every aspect of the original experience, from visuals to gameplay systems, the larger file size should come as little surprise.

Ghost of Yotei Will Be 85 GB on PS5

PlayStation Game Size, a reliable source for backend PlayStation data, revealed that Ghost of Yotei will weigh in at 85.119 GB on PS5. Pre-loads are set to begin on September 25, allowing fans to have the game fully installed ahead of launch day. However, as with many modern releases, this number could increase with a possible day-one patch or additional updates prior to release.

For comparison, the Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut (including the Iki Island expansion) came in at around 60 GB. The jump in size highlights just how much larger and more ambitious Ghost of Yotei is intended to be.

In celebration of the launch, Sony has also revealed limited-edition PS5 Slim and PS5 Pro consoles inspired by the sequel, each decorated with an elegant ink-style depiction of Mt. Yotei in either gold or black. A themed DualSense controller will accompany these consoles, giving fans a collectible way to mark the occasion.

Those planning to play Ghost of Yotei at launch may want to check their available storage, especially amid reports that Sony could be reducing internal storage on some PS5 models in certain regions. With the game taking up 85 GB on its own, managing space will be key for players hoping to dive into Atsu’s journey the moment the sequel releases.
