You&#8217;ll then need to download a 71.6GB update to actually play the RPG via patch 1.002.<\/p>\n<p>It can then be played offline, but you still need the internet connection in the first place to pull that initial update. Without it, the title won&#8217;t play.<\/p>\n<p>As expected because of the internet required banner, Outer Worlds 2 physical will not play from just the data on the disc. Contains only 1.32 GB\u2019s of data. Game itself is about 77 GB\u2019s total so it would have fit on a single PS5 disc, just like Doom The Dark Ages would have. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/n2uTdBkDLY\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/n2uTdBkDLY<\/a>\u2014 Chris | DoesItPlay \ud83d\udcbf (@Chris_TV_Live) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Chris_TV_Live\/status\/1980228444396167406?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">October 20, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Games published by Microsoft have developed a track record over the past 12 months of poor physical releases, with most boxed versions requiring downloads in order for the games themselves to play. This has included <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/indiana_jones_and_the_great_circle\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Indiana Jones and the Great Circle<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps5\/doom_the_dark_ages\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DOOM: The Dark Ages<\/a>. We now have The Outer Worlds 2 to add to the list.<\/p>\n<p>The Outer Worlds 2 launches for PS5 on 29th October, or you can gain access later this week via a Premium Edition offering four days of early access. The base PS5 title received a price drop prior to release, but this more expensive version didn&#8217;t. It&#8217;s still sitting on \u00a389.99 \/ $99.99.<\/p>\n<p>Does the PS5 disc having such little data stored on it put you off buying a boxed copy of The Outer Worlds 2?
