It looks like Elden Ring Nightreign’s install size is less than 50% of the OG Elden Ring despite having a Smash Bros amount of FromSoftware bosses in it

by

The file size for Elden Ring Nightreign on PlayStation 5 has been disclosed, and interestingly enough, it’s smaller than the initial Elden Ring installation file by approximately half.

Based on reports from a well-known PlayStation news source, Nightreign will occupy approximately 21GB on the PlayStation 5. In contrast, Elden Ring took up 45GB at launch and has grown to about 61GB after the addition of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which is roughly a third of its current size.

Absolutely, you’ll often find an initial update for games, which means the download size might increase slightly. However, considering that games such as Horizon Forbidden West occupy around 100GB, a 21GB size is truly impressive in today’s context.

If your console is full and you’d prefer not to delete files to accommodate Nightreign, consider exploring some top-tier PS5 external hard drives available currently. Prices start at just $60 / £50 for a 1TB model, while a massive 28TB one will set you back by $280 / £375. It’s puzzling why the US price is significantly lower than in the UK.

On May 30th, Elden Ring: Nightreign will be released, following its unanticipated reveal at The Game Awards 2024. This game is a cooperative experience that requires an internet connection and can be played either solo or with a team of three. Together, you’ll navigate through various maps designed by FromSoftware, battling powerful bosses in a roguelike setting. Each night presents a new challenge as the maps change and the play area shrinks, adding a unique twist to battle royale gameplay.
