For mobile devices — Android or iOS — you will be able to pre-load the game by first heading to its page on either Google Play or the Apple Store. Once there, you just need to select Install in order to begin downloading the application and pre-load the game.

How Many GBs Does Honkai: Star Rail Weigh?

According to HoYoverse, mobile players will need to clear up around 8.5 GB in order to install the game. PC players, on the other hand, will need to clear up at least 20 GB in order to play it.

With that said, like Genshin, Honkai: Star Rail will keep getting bigger as new versions and characters debut, so we recommend all who are worried about storage space to act now if possible in order to avoid the risk of being unable to play in the future.
