As a result of this compression technology on PS5, the file size for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion is just 20.9GB at launch. Now, we must of course take into account post-launch updates. However, just under 21GB for a fully-fledged Final Fantasy game on PS5 is impressive. Even if it is a remake of a PSP game. As for the PS4 version of the game, it’s almost double the size at 40.5GB at launch. The Xbox version comes in at 22.36GB. While the Nintendo Switch version is just 16.1GB. The Switch version will be much smaller than its counterparts, due to being the less technically demanding version.

Who sold more PS3 or Xbox 360?

The PS3 has sold 87.4 million units and the Xbox 360 has sold 84 million units.

Nintendo Switch has now outsold popular gaming consoles, PS3 and Xbox 360. The news comes from Nintendo’s financial data, revealing that the console has sold just over 89 million units. The newly released figures make Nintendo Switch the seventh most-sold gaming console of all time. The PS3 has sold 87.4 million units and the Xbox 360 has sold 84 million units. What makes this accomplishment for Nintendo more impressive is that the console debuted in 2017, reaching this figure in just under five years. By comparison, the PS3 and Xbox 360 figures come from an 11 year period. Nintendo Switch is slated to outsell the Nintendo Wii, which currently holds the number six spot with just over 101 million units sold. If this happens, Nintendo Switch will become Nintendo’s best-selling gaming console. Last month, the video game company addressed circulating rumors regarding an upcoming Nintendo Switch Pro model. The company stated that the claims were untrue and that the only upcoming model is the Nintendo Switch OLED. The upcoming model that was unveiled last month features a larger seven-inch screen, an updated dock with a wired LAN port, a wide adjustable stand, an updated sound system and 64GB of storage. The updated console is scheduled to arrive in October.
