If you plan on playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on PS5 later this month, then you'd better make sure that your system's storage space is in shape. An early report from the reliable PlayStation Game Size says that the upcoming action title weighs in at a frankly colossal 147GB on PS5.

That number might not come as a huge surprise if you've been keeping up with the news. A couple of weeks back, publisher EA and developer Respawn Entertainment confirmed the game's PC specifications, noting an install size of around 155GB.
