Shenmue 3 is set to require a gargantuan 100 GB of hard drive space to run, states developer Deep Silver in an update on the Kickstarter page for the upcoming martial arts action-adventure title.
The file size, though not the largest we’ve seen, is definitely at the higher end of the spectrum in the same ballpark as Gears of War 4 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

Shenmue 3 was recently delayed to 2019, the second such push back in the title’s growing development history. To give some context, Shenmue 2 was released nearly 17 years ago. As interested parties patiently wait for next year’s release, they can take solace in knowing that remastered versions of Shenmue 1 and Shenmue 2 are scheduled to be released later this year.
