(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); At an event at Guerrilla's Amsterdam offices this week, the developer confirmed that the final version of PlayStation 4 launch title Killzone Shadow Fall clocks in at 39.7GB (in Europe, anyway: some localised versions of the game, needing fewer audio tracks in different languages, are closer to 37GB).

But Using Sony's new feature, PlayGo, after a 7.5GB first initial download you will be able to begin your killzone SF playthrough.

The bulk of the download is down the textures, with the surface size in Killzone SF being as big as 5 to 10x the size of Killzone 3 you can see why!

During the creation of this game, the disc image came to 180GB and with all the levels in, it came to a huge 290GB of data, this then made them completely re-architect how we dealt with data which took them a lot of work!

To be honest im really looking forward to this game! i hope it bring the Killzone addiction i had back with number 2.

Holy Shit - so by my bizarre logic the standard PS4 will have a 500GB HDD, if games like Shadow Fall, Ghosts, BF4 etc run between 30-50GB (then add on updates & DLC) you would only have room for 10-12 Triple-A games.

On my PS3 I currently have 18 games, 10 of which are Triple-A titles - I'm guessing there won't be much of a difference in the amount you can hold.
