GTA 6 File Size Revealed, And It’s Massive
Ahead of the game's release in November, GTA 6's file size has been revealed, and it is massive. PlayStation Game Size reports that the $80 standard edition will take up 210GB of storage capacity.
Size details for the $100 Ultimate Edition--which includes a ton of content not in the regular version--were not made available. We also don't know the Xbox Series X|S file size, but it's likely around the same.
As announced previously, preloading for GTA 6 begins on November 12, which is good news considering the game is massive in terms of its file size. People will no doubt have to delete other content to fit the game on the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. This is double the file size of Rockstar's last game, Red Dead Redemption II.
Everyone expected GTA 6's file size to be gigantic, but now there is a number behind it, and it's one that makes it among the largest games ever in terms of file size. GTA 6's map is three times bigger than Red Dead Redemption 2's, and the game is filled with lots of detail in the vein of that game's horse testicles.
GTA 6 launches on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, and it's expected to be the biggest game of all time. One report said the game could hit 25 million preorders by launch, generating $2 billion in revenue.
GTA 6 is a strictly single-player game, but it's safe to assume that Rockstar will eventually release a new version of GTA Online. A PC edition, meanwhile, is expected in early 2027.
