The day has finally come. 18 years later, Shenmue 3 has finally arrived on PS4 and PC. Keeping much of the gameplay eerily similar, Shenmue 3 also sees the return of Ryo Hazuki as they embark on yet another adventure together. In preparation, some players may be wondering what the Shenmue 3 install size is so they can free space for its download ahead of time.
What Shenmue 3’s Download & Install Size Is
Shenmue 3’s install size is 39.559 GB on PS4 on day-one, while the PC install size via the Epic Games Store is 35.7 GB. We’ve been able to verify the PS4 install ourselves, while you can check the link above for a screenshot of the total PC size via Epic Games Store.
Comparatively speaking, Shenmue 3 isn’t all that much of a big game. Considering the likes of Red Dead Redemption 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Elder Scrolls Online all take up close-to or over 100 GB, less than half of that is quite the dinky game.

If you’re playing on PS4, then Shenmue 3’s install size is all you need to worry about. PC players, however, have processor, RAM, graphics card and other specifications they need to take into account if they’re going to play the game. For convenience sake, we’ve included these below.
