Capcom has yet to confirm Resident Evil Village’s file size on PC, but a leak via thePlayStationSize twitter accountpoints to the game’s PS5 file size being around 27GB barring any day one patches.
However, the officialMicrosoft Store listingtotals Resident Evil Village’s file size at around 45GB, but this could be accounting for a day one patch as well as the inclusion of the bonus multiplayer game Resident Evil Re:Verse that’s bundled with Resident Evil Village.
