Guardians of the Galaxy PC specs revealed, needs 150GB disc space

Square Enix has announced the system specs for Marvels' Guardians of the Galaxy, revealing that the game will require an eye-watering storage space of 150GB on PC.

As per the game's Steam page, the game will eat up a frankly jaw-dropping 150GB of storage of disk space. Compared to other current-gen games, this is massive – the only games we can think of off the top of our heads that beats it is Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, which weighs in at a behemoth 190GB and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare that hits about 231GB.

The launch trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy was published last week, if you want to check out what you're in for if you can free up that ludicrous amount of space on your disk, and you can watch the chaotic action unfold at the link.

Guardians of the Galaxy will be released for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch Cloud, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on October 26. The game will not feature DLC or microtransactions, and if you pre-order the game, you will receive an early unlock of the Throwback Guardians Outfit Pack.
