- Console pre-loading is expected from 12 November.

## Summary

Grand Theft Auto 6 is reportedly set to require a 210 GB download on PlayStation 5, making it larger than Red Dead Redemption 2 and a substantial demand on console storage. The figure could mean players need to clear space before launch, particularly if they have limited broadband or a smaller SSD.

The estimate comes from PlayStation Game Size, which tracks upcoming releases through the PlayStation Store’s backend, and has not been confirmed by the game’s developers. GTA 6 is scheduled for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on 19 November, with console pre-loading expected to begin on 12 November. The reported size is about a fifth of a 1 TB drive and roughly equivalent to 3,500 copies of the indie game Balatro.
