Horizon Forbidden West: All information about the preload and the memory size


The PS5 version is a pretty powerful chunk that takes up quite a bit of storage space.

In Horizon Forbidden West we can continue the adventure journey of Aloy and her allies in a few weeks. So that you can start with the title as quickly as possible, it is advisable to download the preload that developers Guerrilla and Sony have made available in advance. On Twitter, the account has PlayStation Game Size now reveal some details about the preload of the action-adventure.

Horizon Forbidden West becomes a board

The preview of Horizon Forbidden West refers to the PS5 version, which comes with some features that will not be in the PS4 version. Nevertheless, the memory size is a good starting point to be able to roughly estimate the memory space required.

What do I need to clear on my PS4? Unfortunately, there is no precise information on this yet. We will therefore update the article as soon as we receive new information.

What do I need to free up on my PS5? According to PlayStation Game Size, you need to have 96 GB ready. But the account states that the storage size in the database is shown around 10-20 GB larger than when published. This results in the following memory sizes:

  • Displayed memory size in the database: 96 GB
  • Likely disk space requirements: ca. 76-86 GB

However, the Day One patch, which will be released at the launch of Horizon Forbidden West and will already fix many bugs, is not included. So there are still a few GB due for the launch, which you have to plan for. The enormous memory requirement is partly due to the detailed and large open world. Our colleague Linda tells you what kind of bombastic open world you can expect in her summary:
