GTA 6 reportedly requires 210GB of storage on PS5

GTA 6 may require 210GB on PS5, with pre-loading reportedly set to begin on November 12 ahead of launch

Grand Theft Auto 6 may require 210GB of storage on PlayStation 5, according to a new report ahead of the game’s scheduled release on November 19 2026.

Rockstar Games has yet to officially confirm the reported download size. If reports prove accurate, the game would occupy a substantial portion of the original PS5’s 667GB of usable storage, potentially requiring players to uninstall other titles to make room.

The reported size follows earlier claims by leaker Cyberleek, who alleged that a playable development build of GTA 6 exceeded 200GB. However, that claim concerned an alleged development version rather than the finished game.

It remains unclear whether the Xbox Series X|S version will require the same amount of storage. The final installation size could also change following launch-day updates and the release of additional content.

Rockstar has confirmed that pre-loading will begin on November 12, giving players a week to prepare before the game launches. This will allow players to download the title ahead of release rather than waiting until launch day to begin the process.

Players purchasing a physical edition will also need to account for the download. According to the supplied report, Rockstar has confirmed that the boxed edition will contain a download code instead of a disc.

The reported storage requirement comes as anticipation builds for the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series. Rockstar has also discussed the scale of the game’s map, which has been described as twice the size of GTA 5’s map.

Until Rockstar confirms the reported 210GB figure, however, the exact storage requirement for the finished game remains unverified.
