This is almost half the size of the Xbox version of Resident Evil Village, which was revealed to be around 50GB through a listing on the Microsoft Store. The differences could likely be chalked up to the game needing to reserve space for future updates and DLC, however.

Resident Evil Village has a demo available on the PS5, dubbed Maiden. The demo, while lacking any combat, is meant to give players a look at the kind of atmosphere and artwork they will experience in the full release of Resident Evil Village.
