Storage has been one of the hot topics of the current console generation. With the increase in file sizes, fans have had to be clever with how they choose to use their console's storage, whether it's keeping as few games installed as possible or upgrading the internal storage of their new consoles. Thankfully, fans looking to play the upcoming PlayStation console exclusive beat-em-up Sifu won't have to worry about reserving space for the title, as its file size has been revealed, and it's one of the smallest for a big release in a long time.

Sifu was first revealed during a State of Play presentation in early 2021. The game is being developed by Sloclap, the studio behind 2017's breakout beat-em-up fighting game Absolver. Sifu blew fans away during its first presentation as it demonstrated a heavily customizable fighting system with a unique aging mechanic where if the player dies they will return with their character having aged, granting them more power but less health. Abilities also have to be earned after death introducing some rogue-like elements to the game.

Sifu Will Get a Physical Release Next Year

Priced at a lower range of $39.99 for the standard version and coming from an indie developer, many were wondering just how long or big Sifu will be.

On PlayStation 5, Sifu comes in at a tiny 7.16GB, which is barely a scratch on the PS5's estimated 667.2GB of available SSD storage.

As the post from PlayStation Game Size also denotes, Sifu will release with two versions. A standard edition, which will be available
