File size revealed for Kingdom Hearts All-In-One Package on PS4

The PlayStation Store revealed the file size for the Kingdom Hearts All-In-One Package for PlayStation 4, showing a required hard drive space of 112.35 GB. The digital bundle was scheduled for release on January 29, 2019, in North America, coinciding with the launch of Kingdom Hearts 3. This comprehensive collection was designed to provide players with the entire Dark Seeker Saga in a single purchase, making it an ideal entry point for newcomers or a convenient package for longtime fans.

What’s Included in the All-In-One Package

The Kingdom Hearts All-In-One Package is a massive compilation that bundles three separate major releases into one. It contains Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, and the then-newly released Kingdom Hearts 3. This effectively covers ten distinct gameplay experiences and cinematic stories that form the main narrative arc leading up to the third numbered title.

The first component, Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX, is itself a collection of six titles:

• Kingdom Hearts Final Mix: The updated version of the original PS2 game.
• Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories: A full 3D remake of the Game Boy Advance sequel.
• Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days: HD remastered cinematics from the Nintendo DS title.
• Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix: The definitive version of the second main installment, previously exclusive to Japan.
• Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix: An enhanced version of the PSP prequel.
• Kingdom Hearts Re:coded: HD remastered cinematics from the Nintendo DS remake.

The second component, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, includes three more experiences that bridge the gap to Kingdom Hearts 3:

• Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD: A high-definition remaster of the Nintendo 3DS game.
• Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep – A Fragmentary Passage: A short, new episode using Kingdom Hearts 3’s engine, serving as a direct prequel.
• Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover: A one-hour cinematic movie explaining the series’ ancient lore.

Finally, the package is rounded out with a full digital copy of Kingdom Hearts 3, the culminating chapter of the long-running saga.

Breaking Down the 112.35 GB File Size

The substantial 112.35 GB total install size reflects the sheer volume of content included. When broken down, the individual components contribute significantly to this total. The Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX collection requires approximately 47.5 GB of space on its own. Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue takes up around 29 GB. The standalone digital version of Kingdom Hearts 3 had a launch day file size of about 39 GB, though this could vary with day-one patches.

Summing these individual sizes gives a figure close to the bundle’s listed total, accounting for packaging and store data. For PlayStation 4 owners, particularly those with the standard 500 GB launch model, this install size represented a major commitment of storage. After accounting for the operating system and other essential data, 112.35 GB could easily occupy more than a quarter of the usable hard drive space. This made storage management a key consideration for players planning to purchase the digital bundle.

A Comprehensive Collection for Newcomers

Square Enix positioned the All-In-One Package as the definitive way to experience the entire Kingdom Hearts story arc before playing the final chapter. For years, the series was spread across multiple consoles from different generations, including the PlayStation 2, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, PSP, and Nintendo 3DS. The PS4 remaster collections gathered these disparate titles, but players still had to purchase them separately.

This bundle streamlined the process, offering every canonical game and cinematic compilation in a single, convenient download. It removed the guesswork for new players trying to navigate the series’ notoriously complex timeline and release order. By purchasing the All-In-One Package, a player could progress through the entire saga chronologically as presented in the collections, leading directly into the events of Kingdom Hearts 3. The pricing of the digital bundle at its release also offered a discount compared to buying Kingdom Hearts - The Story So Far (which contained the first two collections) and Kingdom Hearts 3 separately. This made it a compelling value proposition for anyone starting from scratch on the eve of the saga’s conclusion.
