Full-game install size
The table above lists Konami's official storage requirements. What the console actually stores is close to — but not the same as — that number:
| Platform | Store requirement (Standard / Midnight) | Reported download size |
|---|---|---|
| PS5 | 8 GB / 10 GB | 7.136 GB (version 01.001.000) |
| Xbox Series X|S | 8 GB / 10 GB | Not confirmed |
| PC (Steam) | 8 GB / 10 GB | Not confirmed |
| Nintendo Switch | 4 GB / 6 GB | Not confirmed |
- PS5 — 7.136 GB confirmed. The exact figure comes from console store data reported by PlayStation Game Size and carried by play3.de and several other outlets. Konami's own listing still states 8 GB for the Standard edition and 10 GB for the Midnight Edition, so keep the official number as your planning figure.
- Other platforms — reported sizes vary between outlets and none is confirmed by store data, so we're not publishing one. We'll add each platform's confirmed figure as store listings go live.
- This is the preload build. A day-one patch can change the final footprint.
- Demo sizes are separate and smaller — 6 GB on PS5, 5 GB on Xbox, 4 GB on Steam, 3 GB on Switch (Demo).
