I'm kidding, of course, but only a little bit, which is the scary part.

They're probably modeling every unique Chocobo feather even as we speak, each wing seasoned with 500MB of detail. I shudder to think what today's Final Fantasy 7 team will do with the PS5. Final Fantasy 15's HD texture pack is another relevant point of reference at over 150GB. From the list of the biggest PS5 install sizes, the cross-gen Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War Ultimate Edition is frankly a threat at over 280GB. While PS5 ports of PS4 games are often smaller due to compression advantages, Rebirth is a PS5 exclusive, and we've seen that new-gen game sizes can balloon rapidly due to higher asset fidelity. Remember, Final Fantasy 7 Remake was 100GB on PS4. 'As such, we designed assets like the backgrounds,, and characters per location, which allowed for a unique gameplay experience in each area, even from a game design perspective,' Hamaguchi added. 'Rather than thinking about repurposing standard assets for individual locations, like the Slums or the Shinra Building, we decided to build each location using unique assets to achieve the quality desired for ,' co-director Naoki Hamaguchi told US Gamer in an interview now hosted on VG24/7. Instead, you'd polish things off with the game disc and then use it to actually play in the future. You'd install the bulk of the stuff with the data disc then never need to touch it again. Basically, you got a data disc and a game disc. I'm assuming that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will work just like the Remake did, which itself worked just like Red Dead Redemption 2 did - another rare modern two-disc game, albeit a last-gen one.

The obvious precedent here is Final Fantasy 7 Remake, which also came with two discs and a whopper of a drive footprint at 100GB. One way or another, your hard drive's getting both barrels. Instead, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will seemingly put more emphasis on installing content rather than downloading it to supplement what's on the disc, but that does not mean the game will be small altogether. Hell, a few physical games have actually come with a worthless decorative disc paired with a digital voucher. Why might a game need two discs? Well, we could be looking at the opposite approach that some games take nowadays by essentially including a cosmetic disc leashed to a mammoth mandatory download.
