Ultra Sun and Moon Maps Limited to Ultra Spaces: Estimated File Size relative to Sun and Moon
The game roughly contains around a file size of 3.6 GB which is 1.125 times more than Pokemon Sun and Moon that capped at 3.2 GB. With this in mind, it seems that additional maps would possibly no longer fit for a game of this size, leaving the Ultra Spaces as the sole added content in this case.
Ultra Space locations should take the bulk of the Alola Map as far as the file size is concerned. With respect to maps, these would entail fitting the environments of past Ultra Beasts namely the Version Exclusive ones: Buzzwole and Kartana for Ultra Sun Players, and Pheromosa and Celesteela for Ultra Moon Players. Both Versions should come with the addition of Xurkitree’s Ultra Space, and content featuring the new Ultra Beasts.
