Final Fantasy VII: Revelations will be released next year on Xbox Series X | S, Playstation 5 and PC. The project was created on Unreal Engine 4, and the developers previously explained why they abandoned the idea of translating the final part of the trilogy to Unreal Engine 5. But despite this, the game is expected to become one of the “heaviest” games for Xbox Series X. S indicates the size of the download file.
Game director Naoki Hamaguchi was interviewed gas chromatography It means that “Final Fantasy VII: Revelations” requires about 200 GB of console installation space. Thus, he answered the question of why the game cannot be released on disk without requiring additional file downloads.
There is still uncertainty, but gaming memory will most likely be around 200GB. I know there are a lot of opinions on this, but the ultimate point is that we have to consider hardware limitations to some extent. One thing I will say is that even if the game doesn’t fit on a disc, which in our case – discs are probably a thing of the past, maybe they’re here to stay – we’d definitely like to have some kind of physical release for Final Fantasy 7: Revelations. This is very important to us. Believe me!
Note that there are about a dozen games on Xbox that take up more than 100 GB of space. These include Call of Duty, Ark, NBA 2K and a number of other projects. However, if we initially download the game from the Microsoft Store before installing various add-ons and updates, the size of 200 GB has not yet been overcome by any project. There are rumors that Grand Theft Auto VI may take up over 200 GB, but preloads haven’t started yet – release is slated for November 12th.
