GTA 6 PS5 File Size Confirmed to Be 212GB, Physical Map Available But Not in Boxed Copies
Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 will need 212GB of storage on PS5, giving players a clearer idea of the space required ahead of launch. The game can be preloaded from 10 November, two days earlier than previously planned, before its release on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on 19 November 2026.
A physical map of the game world will be made, continuing a feature of earlier GTA editions, but it will not be included with boxed copies, which contain a download code. Players can buy the map for $0.99 from the Rockstar Store or receive it free with any purchase there; digital versions of the box art and Leonida map will also be available to download.
In short
- GTA 6 requires 212GB of PS5 storage.
- Preloading starts on 10 November 2026.
- The physical map is sold separately from boxed copies.
Explained simply
Grand Theft Auto, or GTA, is a long-running series of open-world action games made by Rockstar Games. Players explore fictional places and follow stories involving crime and everyday life; GTA 6 is set in Leonida, a fictional US state.
The game is due for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and its reported storage requirement gives players an idea of how much room to free up on their consoles. Earlier GTA games included printed maps of their worlds, so the planned Leonida map continues that tradition, although it will be sold separately from boxed copies.
