Aloy's new game LEGO Horizon Adventures is out on the Switch this month, and if you're planning on downloading this game, you might be curious to know just how much space it will take up.
According to an official Switch eShop listing, you'll need around 5.9GB of free space on your system to install it. The file size of the game doesn't appear to have been revealed for the PlayStation, but the Steam listing says the PC version requires around 30GB of storage.
Other LEGO games on the Switch have all sorts of different file sizes. Lego City Undercover was close to 9 GB according to a store listing and games like the Star Wars: Skywalker Saga went past 15 GB, so this upcoming release is definitely smaller in size.
This news follows on from Nintendo sharing an official trailer of LEGO Horizon Adventures running on Switch. And in case you're wondering, yes - a physical version is also available to pre-order:

If Sony manages to fit the entire game on a cart, then they get a mad shout out.
This looks absolutely neat. Undecided which platform to get this on.
PC version cost 80.$. lol
Who runs Sony again?
For me it wouldn't be a problem regardless as I've preordered it physically discounted from my usual retailer but still, it's nice to see it's on the smaller size for those getting it digitally compared to other Lego games on Switch and even more so the PC version which is five times as big!
@Toastmaster @Daimando I didnt realise it was Sony behind this, just checked and it Guerrilla which is Sony owned right? I assumed as with past games it was Travellers Tales - wonder if they lost/have to share lego rights now. More interested in this now to see how it turns out, new perspective (dev) and all
Never played the Horizon games, so this will be the way to go for me.
@ozwally Yes, Sony own them and it's probably only a one game deal.
Travellers Tales can make more Lego games, but they are limited to Warner Bros IP's, because Disney owns Marvel, Star Wars etc.
@Toastmaster In that case, I'd love to see a redo of Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit, but doubt that will happen
I had to look at the title like "LEGO Horizon? Horizon, the Sony franchise? On a Nintendo console?"
Sony is desperate for that Concord money that they remastered this game twice. Once as a LEGO game and again as a PS5 game. Three times if you bought the remastered Steam version (which is basically the PS5 port but on PC) which will replace the original version (which is already delisted on Steam) and required PSN.
@KingMike Yes, because Sony want to recover some of the Concord and TLOU online cancelation losses.
Astro Bot didn't do well either.
@ozwally We will see. Warner probably still have game rights for LOTR.
@Serpenterror @Toastmaster Sony surely didn’t conjure up this release in one month to recoup any lost founds, that would be a pretty great feat 😂 this is probably meant to be a gateway title for the Horizon series.
Lol just beat Forbidden West yesterday (still gotta do Burning Shores…my babies!)
@Serpenterror In the space of a month they greenlit a Switch port, and ported the original game into a far more advanced engine (and redid lots of animation and dialogue)?
Lol, sure thing.
After this, it seems the door is open for more cross platform releases between ‘competitors’
Some I can see happening are:
Mario & Rabbids on x-box (ps5 seems less likely)
Halo on Switch
The Last of Us 1 HD remaster on Switch
Breath of the Wild on PS5 (not really, but imagine)
