LEGO Horizon Adventures Switch and PC File Sizes Revealed
LEGO Horizon Adventures Size
Though the file size forLEGO Horizon Adventuresis shown on the game’s Switch and Steam pages, the figure is absent onHorizon’s “home” platform, the PlayStation 5. This is due to the fact that PSN Store pages don’t typically list file sizes. Given the relative similarities between platforms, though, it may be safe to assume that players aiming to putHorizonseries heroine Aloy and her friendsin their minifig forms on PS5 may need to clear around 30 gigabytes of space as well.
It’s notable that the Switch version ofLEGO Horizon Adventuresis significantly smaller, clocking in at less than a third of the PC file size. Given the relatively underpowered hardware of the Switch compared to the PS5 and even lower-end gaming PCs, the small file size probably reflects the efforts made by developers to squeeze games onto the handheld console. That said, developers Studio Gobo and Guerilla Games seem to have compressed the Switch version particularly well. For comparison with anothermajorLEGOtitle likeLEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, clocks in at about 40 GB on PC, 36 GB on PS5, and 15.8 GB on Switch.
It will be interesting to see howLEGO Horizon Adventuresdoes on Switch. ThoughHorizonis now a multi-platform franchise thanks to the PlayStation-published versions on PC, Switch-exclusive gamers might have no experience with the series given its lack of presence outside PlayStation platforms. A successful debut, though, could validate the change inSony attitudes regardingHorizonand other exclusive franchisesand games.
