The Last of Us 2 file size is the largest PS4-exclusive title

[Tek]

The Last of Us 2 will take up at least 100GB on your PS4, as its return to the PSN Store reconfirms the approximate file size for Naughty Dog's sequel, which will also launch on two discs for owners of the game's physical edition.

A listing for the game on the PlayStation website, discovered by Push Square, states that players will need "100 GB minimum" free space on their PS4 to install The Last of Us 2 onto the system.

For comparison, the recently released Final Fantasy 7 Remake came in at just over 90GB, as did Red Dead Redemption 2 when it launched back in 2018.

Like Rockstar's western sequel, the listing also reconfirms previous reports that The Last of Us 2's physical edition will launch on two discs, with presumably the first used to install the game onto the system, and the second to required to actually play it.

This easily makes The Last of Us 2 the biggest PS4 exclusive yet, in terms of its pure size. That makes sense, given the memory required for all those high res textures, the fact that Naughty Dog is pitching it as the most ambitious game its made yet, and that it's launching at the tail end of the console's life cycle.

The upcoming PS4 exclusive is now set to release on June 19, following a three week delay brought about by the impact of COVID-19 on supply chains, before Sucker Punch's next PlayStation title, Ghost of Tsushima, follows with a July 17 launch. No word yet on a PS5 port, but recent rumours point to a PS5 event happening in five weeks time, so stay tuned.

Its return to the PSN Store also reiterates the need for two discs if you're buying a physical edition

That's SUPER big. But it also means that TLOU 2 has plenty of stuff to do when you're inside the game.
Fair trade, IMO.

That is a lot. I wonder if that would give us realistic graphics like we see with the COD modern warfare. I mean 100 GB should have strong graphics like this. Either way 100 GB in times of recession for a game? too much.

Days Gone is also pretty long. I still think that's an underrated game, and very similar to The Last of Us games.
