Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled for release on November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles. The game is expected to be massive not only in terms of its game world, but also in file “weight”.
Dataminer PlayStation Game Size recently reported that GTA VI on PlayStation 5 will weigh around 210 GB. Pre-loading is set to open as early as November 12.
Earlier, he also shared that the developers have set a launch restriction for GTA VI: firmware version 14.10.00.00 or higher will be required.
Sony consoles are known for game sizes on PlayStation 5 often being significantly smaller than on other platforms thanks to Kraken technology. Therefore, PC gamers fear that a potential GTA VI port will take up substantial storage space.
Notably, 210+ GB will be required solely for the single-player portion of Grand Theft Auto VI. The developers have not yet shared anything about a hypothetical “GTA VI Online”.
Judging by the comments, some PlayStation 5 owners have prepared in advance. For example, VaughnPrime boasted that he has a total of 4 TB of storage space.
