Given the extraordinarily large file size of some modern video games, many fans wonder just how big GTA 6 could be. The long-awaited Grand Theft Auto sequel is set to launch on current-gen consoles in Fall 2025, but no official details regarding its file size have been revealed as of writing. Nevertheless, rumors and speculations on this specific topic are a common sight.
In this article, we will be analyzing a few rumors and speculations from the internet about GTA 6's possible size. Having said that, readers are advised to take the data with a grain of salt, as none of it is official by any means.
A roundup of GTA 6 GB size rumors and speculations
Trending
An old rumor regarding Grand Theft Auto 6's size stems from X user @GTAVInewz, who used a screenshot from an uncited source, claiming that the next Rockstar Games title's install size could be a whopping 750 GB. Needless to say, this is highly unrealistic, as that would exceed the storage capacities of base PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles.
The game's file size was then rumored to cross the 300 GB mark in a now-deleted tweet from X user @GTAVIbestleaks, which was made back in February 2024. GTA 6 will likely offer a huge open-world map to explore with many activities, which is why it may seem a bit more credible; however, most fans were still not convinced.
As of late, fans have been speculating GTA 6's possible file size to be around the 200 GB mark. While the upcoming Call Of Duty Black Ops 6 having an approximate size of 300 GB has a few players concerned, most trust Rockstar to do a better job at optimizing their next title's file size.
GTA 5's PS5 version (Expanded and Enhanced) with all the online content and certain technological advancements currently has a file size of 95.945 GB. Red Dead Redemption 2, another major Rockstar Games title, takes just a little over 100 GB of space, as mentioned in the comment above by u/TheDarkKnightXXII.
Therefore, even if GTA 6 bests them in terms of magnitude and content, it still might not have an absurd file size that goes beyond the 200 GB mark. That being said, the opposite could also be true as no official details about it are available at the moment.
In a nutshell, fans must wait for an announcement from Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive (the former's parent company) for accurate and credible information. GTA 6's release window is set for Fall 2025, which is why more details about the sequel are expected to be revealed soon.
Until then, there is always GTA Online to keep players entertained. Its next major DLC, Bottom Dollar Bounties, will be out on June 25, 2024, adding a plethora of fresh content.
