Sony's PS5 will be released in November.
Little by little, details will become known.
A leak now shows that the storage space on the new PS could be running out.
The Playstation 5 *, which will be available
in stores from November
, has a fast
SSD hard drive
with a capacity of 825 GB.
This is an upgrade compared to the previous PS4.
However, the storage space for the operating system of the console is subtracted from this.
Twitter leak shows: storage space of the new PS5 is tight
Now the user Okami has
shared
pictures of the
PS5 interface
on Twitter
, which reveal the effective memory size of the console.
Accordingly, a memory of
664 GB
is available.
The Playstation 5 will have 664 GB of usable space after system and OS files.
Astro's Playroom can be uninstalled for an additional 2.4 GB.

PS5 launch title: These games are available for release.
The previously
criticized memory of
the new Playstation console will therefore be further reduced.
For comparison: the new Xbox Series X has an SSD with 1 TB of storage space, of which 802 GB effectively remains after deducting the operating system space.
SSDs ensure
faster loading times
and overall better game
performance
.
Still, the low storage space could be a problem for users when they want to store multiple games on the PS5.
Because games increasingly need more
storage space
, which
could
quickly get tight
on the
PS5
.
Popular titles such as “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare” and “Warzone” currently consume around 200 GB.
So gamers should think twice about which games they want to install on the PS5.

Expand PS5 storage space: These are the possibilities for gamers
The possibility of
expanding the storage space
remains
.
The connection of external hard drives could be difficult, however, since the PS5 comes with a special SSD and hard drives have to meet certain requirements that Sony has not yet announced.
The manufacturer will also offer its own options for memory expansion, but so far there is still no information about what this will
cost
.
Competitor Microsoft
recently presented its memory cards for expansion.
The price: over 200 euros.
If Sony rates similar prices, it can be expensive for gamers.
