Black Myth: Wukong’s recent update hits 93GB file size on PlayStation 5

Black Myth: Wukong’s recent update has hit over 93GB in file size on the PlayStation 5, according to the game’s developers. They mentioned that this is due to “differences in file storage methods,” presumably compared to other platforms.
