How many GB is Total War: Shogun 2?

32 GB

That is more than the typical Real Time Strategy (RTS) game, which needs about 6 GB.

The median Real Time Strategy (RTS) game needs 3 GB; the largest tenth start at 20 GB.

Leave at least 44 GB free: games need headroom to unpack updates.

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

In Total War: Shogun 2 you choose from one of 9 (10 with Ikko-Ikki dlc) clans, each with their own unique traits and skills and each with their own RPG-style warlord to lead them. Use a mixture of diplomacy, political manoeuvring, province building, research and special agents such as Ninja assassins or Geisha spies to get your enemies exactly where you want them. An intuitive user interface and a lovingly-created, complex and detailed campaign map make it both easy and enjoyable to build and run cities, recruit and move troops and issue commands – both noble and dishonorable, all with the aim of mastering enemy forces and seizing their lands.
