One of the comments said,” Ps5 requires 89 GB. I’m Guessing that 25 GB difference is for 4k textures and PS timed exclusive content they get. Xbox 61GB does not need a 4k texture patch and won’t get any content for a while. Thankfully GB size it better than the cold war 250GB required.” Another comment said,” I think the PS5 version has extra content.”
