Here's everything you need to know about when you can go hands-on with The Medium on PS5

The Medium PS5 Release Time

The Mediums is set to release on Friday, 3 September both on the PlayStation Store and physically in stores. If you are purchasing digitally, the game will unlock at midnight in your regional timezone.

Unlike other releases where there may be a fixed release time, this one is tailored to each country. We can't think of anything better as this means you can start playing The Medium in the dead of night, exactly how it was meant to be enjoyed!

The Medium Download Size

As The Medium isn't a full-blown AAA experience, we're fortunately not talking about a 100GB+ download. The Xbox and PC version of the game sits at less than 30GB. No need to delete a bunch of old games to make room!

The Medium is the closest you'll get to a new Silent Hill game for some time we imagine.

If you are determined not to delete anything to make room, you can look at adding an internal SSD. You'll need to make sure it's compatible and comes with its own dedicated heat sink! There aren't too many options on the market right now so check any of the various guides out there for help.

Pre-load is available on PS5 pre-orders. This means that you can get the entire game and day one patch downloaded early so there's no delay in getting going. If this is not set up automatically, you can head into the PlayStation store page for The Medium and initiate the download from there.
