In total, you’ll need 212GB free on your console in order to download it. So it’s probably a good idea to say your fond farewells to any beloved single player games or tried-and-true live service titles sitting on your consoles.
On the Rockstar Games support site, detailed instructions on how to pre-load GTA 6 on both Xbox and PlayStation are present. On the PlayStation Store you’ll need to find the game on the digital store and pre-order the game. On the Xbox Series X/S, the same is true. Simply navigate to the store and pre-order it to proceed with the download.
This comes shortly after the chunky size of Grand Theft Auto 6 were discovered, as well as a sneak peak at stool-related violence from a South Park episode and the announcement that Rockstar Games employees will have a chance to officially recognise a developer union. So, it’s a busy time to say the least.
