To be clear, PlayFab doesn't have a public feature named Player Storage. Are you indicating Profile Storage?

May I ask what do you mean by usage is too high? Is the update frequency too high or API calls exceeding the limit? Do you have any callback results from certain calls?

In addition, does it result in any billing issue?

Yes, I meant profile storage.

The size of the storage keeps increased and it will always charge based on the size right?

I kinda worried if we still use this service for years, the storage size gonna be so big.

I want to know is there any way to reduce it?

PlayFab mainly count each profile read and write. Basically, everything related to a player account will be stored in the Profile Storage – Player Data, Master Player account profiles, entity files, etc... Most resources are limited according to the Limit page at Game Manager. I don’t think you need to worry about the total storage size, even though it may increase fast at the beginning, it will be within a limited size after all. Please note that it is important to restrict Profile Read&Write frequency.

If you still have concerns about storage, the most possible resource to consume storage is Entity Files, because it only limits to the quantity. You may need to pay attention on the client uploaded file size.

Please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/features/pricing/meters/meters and also check the Profile read&write docs.
