Forspoken PS5 download size has been revealed, and players are going to need to clear out quite a bit of space from their hard drives. According to trusty PSN backend scraper PlayStation Game Size, Forspoken weighs 87.275 GB and it looks like there will be a day-one patch because Sony’s server lists the game’s version as 1.000.001.

Forspoken has had quite an interesting road to launch. Despite boasting a high-profile dev team that includes Uncharted writer Amy Hennig, the game’s trailers and recently-released demo have been extremely polarizing. It doesn’t help that PS5’s third-party console exclusives have been quite lackluster, and Square Enix has yet to find much success when it comes to current-gen games beyond Final Fantasy.
Forspoken is a timed console exclusive and will also release on PC.
