The PlayStation 4's latest launch title, Killzone Shadow Fall, has generated a lot of buzz among gamers due to its massive file size. The game clocks in at an astonishing 39.7GB, making it one of the largest games available on the new console. But why is Killzone so big?

According to Guerrilla Games' technical director, Michiel van der Leeuw, the high-quality art assets used by the PS4 are largely responsible for the large file size. The game's levels are designed to be much larger and more open than those in previous Killzone games, which requires a significant amount of data storage.

In an interview with IGN, van der Leeuw explained that the studio worked hard to optimize the game's file size, but ultimately decided not to compromise on quality. 'I think we're probably a lot larger than the other cross-generation games, because we have no assets that have been made to a lower spec,' he said.

The large file size has raised concerns about how gamers will be able to store and download the game. With the shift towards digital delivery and servers struggling to distribute titles like GTA5, it's natural to worry about whether our internets and hard drives can handle the extra data.

However, Sony has implemented its PlayGo system, which allows players to start playing the game while it's still downloading from the server. This means that gamers will be able to play Killzone Shadow Fall after a relatively small 7.5GB download.

Despite the large file size, Killzone Shadow Fall is shaping up to be an impressive title for the PS4. With its stunning graphics and engaging gameplay, it's sure to be a hit with fans of first-person shooters. So, if you're looking for a game that will put your console's capabilities to the test, look no further than Killzone Shadow Fall.
