What happened
The PlayStation Game Size account, which reads release data from the PlayStation Store, reported on October 27, 2026 that Grand Theft Auto VI's standard edition is a 210GB download, with pre-load on November 12 and release on November 19. Insider Gaming corroborated the figure, and GameSpot, GamesRadar+ and Engadget covered the report. Rockstar has not published an official size, and the Xbox Series X|S and Ultimate Edition sizes have not been reported. Download and install sizes can differ, and a day-one patch is likely, so keeping about 250GB free is the safe plan. See our file size page for console-by-console storage advice.
