GTA 6 preloading opens ahead of November 19 launch
The game's reported 212GB download is available for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 in most regions.
Players who pre-order Grand Theft Auto VI can now install it before its November 19 release, with preloading available in most regions on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The advance download does not unlock the game before launch.
Rockstar Games introduced preloading in stages, opening access for Xbox owners first. On PS5 and PS5 Pro, downloads became available at midnight local time on November 10 across all regions.
The reported download size is 212GB. That exceeds half the approximately 362GB of usable storage on a standard 512GB Xbox Series S, making available console space a consideration before installation.
Physical copies are scheduled to begin shipping and reach retail stores on November 12. Reported sales ahead of release are already around 8 million copies.
The Standard Edition costs US$80, while the Ultimate Edition is priced at US$100. Both are offered through the Xbox and PlayStation stores, with retailers including Amazon and Walmart also selling the game.
