125 GB

That makes it bigger than 99% of Shooter games we have measured.

The median Shooter game needs 4 GB; the largest tenth start at 40 GB.

Leave at least 155 GB free: games need headroom to unpack updates.

The figure is the storage Steam lists as required for this game, not a measured download.
