Guardians of the Galaxy Requires 150GB of Disk Space on PC

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy will reportedly require 150GB of disk space on PC, according to the information listed on Steam.
The system requirements for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy have been listed on the game's Steam page. While the majority of the requirements seem pretty reasonable, the game will require a minimum of 150GB of available storage. This puts the required storage miles above some of the more recent game releases like Back 4 Blood, which only requires 40GB of available storage. Even Square Enix's other superhero venture, Marvel's Avengers, requires less space at 110GB.
Of course, large storage requirements aren't unheard of these days. Microsoft Flight Simulator, released last year, features an almost entire virtual Earth and yet requires roughly 150GB according to its Steam listing.
The fate of the galaxy is up to a band of misfits. What could go wrong? ?
