Sega has started rolling out its Yakuza 6: The Song of Life demo to PS4 users across the globe, although you may need to do a bit of impromptu spring cleaning if you want squeeze it on your hard drive. 

The Aussie PlayStation Store listing confirms that the demo weighs in at an eye-wincing 36.53GB, which as you’re probably aware is easily the same size, if not more, than some full PS4 games. The description says that the teaser features Yakuza 6’s prologue chapter, so there’s presumably a lot of cutscenes on offer, hence the demo’s hefty size.

The good news is that you can transfer your save data from the demo over to the full game when it launches in the US and UK on April 17. Yakuza 6 was previously scheduled to launch in the west on March 20, and was originally released in its native Japan in December 2016.

Sega recently launched a full-blown remake of 2006’s Yakuza 2 for the PS4 in Japan, though right now it’s unknown if it’ll see the light of day over here.Â
