GTA 6 Preload Is Now Available for All Digital Pre-Orders, Download to Your PS5 Now
Rockstar Games has opened preloading for GTA 6 to everyone who pre-ordered the game digitally through the PlayStation Store. PS5 owners can download and install it ahead of launch, which matters because the game’s large install size could make downloading take some time.
The announcement came with a short trailer featuring new gameplay snippets and “Blood In Your Eyes” by Tove Lo, a track on the game’s licensed soundtrack. Buyers of the code-in-a-box edition cannot preload yet and will have to wait; the article gives no download size or preload date for that version.
In short
- Digital PS Store pre-orders can preload GTA 6 on PS5.
- The large install may take time to download.
- Code-in-a-box buyers must wait to preload.
Explained simply
Grand Theft Auto, or GTA, is a long-running video game series made by Rockstar Games. Its games let players explore large fictional cities and follow stories involving crime and characters on both sides of the law.
GTA 6 is the next main game in the series, being released for PlayStation 5. Players can buy it digitally through the PlayStation Store or buy a boxed edition that includes a download code; the two formats can have different arrangements for getting the game onto a console.
Preloading means downloading a game before its release so it is ready to play when it becomes available. This can matter for large games, as downloading them may take time depending on a player’s internet connection.
