Gran Turismo 7 Game Size?

[Jig The Fig]

Considering the PS5's Kraken compression, how big are we expecting the PS5 version of GT7 to be?

 

[TeamCZRRacing]

North of 100 gb wouldn't surprise me, but we'll have to wait and see for an exact size.

Not having been able to upgrade my console's storage yet, I'm honestly dreading it.

Yeah, for me, nvme gen4 ssd's are way too expensive at the moment.

 

[ZRO]

Given how small Hitman 3 shrank once ported to PS5, I'd honestly expect the file size to come in around ~70-80GBs.

 

[Jig The Fig]

The extra scapes location will probably add like 15gbs and if it's anything like GT sport, it'll get bigger after each update.

Could use an external HDD if you're willing to wait longer.

Nah I'll be fine with storage for now, it's because I have GT Sport which takes up like 125gb so once 7 comes out I'll delete it.

 

[JustMac]

I resent buying things like HDD so I've gotten into the habit of just deleting and juggling my games library. This one might make me bite the bullet though! I would expect 100GB + .

GT7 is going to be an absolute beast of a game in terms of file size, especially on the PS5, where you will need at least 110GB.

 

[Zaccheus]

Since GTS is also over 100Gt this doesn't seem surprising.

That isn't going to be accurate on PS5 I'm quite sure. Every game is smaller on PS5 than ps4. Usually much smaller.

Well that's the quoted expected size on PS5. GT7 on PS4 will definitely be significantly larger than GT Sport (I wouldn't be surprised if it's COD-like, and PS4 users are expected to face the long copying times whenever updates are around), and with the compression on the PS5, that's how it came to be.

After all, besides COD, a Gran Turismo game on PS4 or PS5 can be a total monster of a game in terms of file size. It's just going to get bigger and bigger whenever they add in new cars, tracks, campaign races and other features through updates, to the point where at the end of the game's lifespan, it will be around 200GB.

 

[Kalder]

If the game on PS5 takes up 110GB with that kraken compression, I would suspect the PS4 version to be around 150+GB

So much for "releasing the Kraken", I guess.

This is the store page the article links to. Unless I'm going blind I can't see any reference to the file size?

Yeah. The whole article seems off.

Well if it didn't have kraken, it would be much higher.

I don't mind if the game hits 200GB...

Someone on /r/GT says that it was very briefly there on the store page, but now it's gone.

How "briefly" and when? There's been no changes between the last cached version at 0654 UTC today and the last Archive.org page at 0308 UTC on January 16, and the current version.

So twistedvoxel wrote that article based on someone on the subreddit rather than actually seeing it themselves then, and without evidence.

Also I had to laugh whilst checking the GT sub, reminded me why I don't go there any more.

How do you compare Forza's money grinding to GT's? Personally for me, Forza's easy grind is what turns me off to play the game for a long period of time, it's just that you can finish the whole game in a few months, meanwhile GT's grinding took me a week just to buy a Ford GT (In GT4), was worth it.

An actual human being wrote that, 100% seriously. The mind truly boggles.

That comment I was referring to was actually on one covering this:

The file size isn’t listed on the PlayStation store anymore. I doubt it will be this big when it actually released. At least not for PS5.

That comment I was referring to was actually on one covering this:

Oh, well that person doesn't actually confirm they personally saw it then, just that it isn't there now after they read the article. So apparently only twistedvoxel saw it. Odd.

At any rate, I plan to uninstall GT Sport when I get GT7, as the latter will very likely render the former entirely obsolete. It's not unlike comparing GT3 to GT4, where the latter is deemed superior to its predecessor by almost all accounts. I cannot see there being any reason to keep GT Sport installed on my PS4 whatsoever.

And since there's a mention about PlayStation Direct talking about the size of the PS4 version in the replies:

1-2 players. 2-20 network players. PlayStation®Plus subscription required [for online multiplayer]. 110GB minimum. DualShock®4 vibration function supported. 2 Discs. Online Play Optional. PS4 Pro Enhanced.

While it only hints at minimum storage size, this also confirms that the PS4 version will have an install and play disc.

*Without day one patch. Still could be a little larger, but the day one patch is yet to be seen. I'm guessing the game's about to get gold soon?

Hopefully we don't need to download Scapes again like in GT Sport.

The sizes from that site are often based on inaccurate data too. They don't usually match the finished product.

Case in point:


When they predicted 89 GB:

 

[ICEYOU3]

Around 100 gigs is about what I expected, though I feared it'd be around 120-125gigs
