Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne HD File Size Revealed | Game Rant

As video game graphics continue to improve, file sizes have jumped to astronomically large numbers for most mainline games. With many triple-A games sitting at around 50-60GB these days, and PC titles such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare not fitting on 250GB hard drives, the trend seems to be heading in a very definitive direction. When developing Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne HD, however, it seems special care was taken to keep the file size down.

Shin Megami Tensei 3 was initially released for the PlayStation 2 back in 2003 and was considered a commercial and critical success in both Japan and the rest of the world. Much like the 2003 rollout for Shin Megami Tensei 3, the HD remaster has been released in Japan first and will be coming to North America later.

Luckily, for North American fans considering deleting games from their hard drives to clear space for Shin Megami Tensei 3 HD when it is released on May 25th, Persona Central got its hands on a few copies of the Japanese edition of the game and posted screenshots on Twitter revealing that the remaster is actually quite small. The Switch edition of the game comes in at 6.7 GB, and the PlayStation 4 version isn't much larger, sitting at 8.1 GB. As for the PC edition, the game's Steam page lists the install requirement at a mere 14 GB of storage space. Further, Nintendo's official page for the game states the Switch download edition will be 8.5GB.

All in all, especially by modern standards, the game isn't very big, so fans shouldn't have to delete much, if anything, to install it on their platform of choice. Of course, they will have to decide whether the Shin Megami Tensei HD remaster is worth the asking price, or if they simply want to dust off their PS2 and play the original.

Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne HD Remaster comes out on Nintendo Switch, PC, and PlayStation 4 on May 25th, 2021.
