How to pre-load GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC on PS4 and PS5?

The GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC can now be pre-loaded on the PlayStation 4 and 5. This means that users of those two specific consoles can download this year's summer update beforehand and install it at the official release time. Rockstar Games had also done this for the multiplayer's last few major DLCs, including December 2023's The Chop Shop and June 2023's San Andreas Mercenaries.

If the auto-update feature of your PS4 or PS5 is enabled in the settings menu, the summer DLC should begin pre-loading automatically. However, if that isn't the case, then you will have to start the download manually. For those requiring assistance, here's how to pre-load GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC on PS4 and PS5.

Use the Check for Update option to pre-load GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC on PS4 and PS5 manually

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to pre-load GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC on PS4 and PS5:

• Step 1 - Navigate to Grand Theft Auto V's icon in your PS4/PS5's main menu.
• Step 2 - Click the Options button on your Dualshock 4 (PS4) or Dualsense (PS5) controller.
• Step 3 - Select Check for Update from the new menu.

Your console will now check for an update for Grand Theft Auto V, so make sure that it is connected to the internet. Since the Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC is available for pre-load on PlayStation, you will get a notification about an update file being available for the application.

When that happens, the pre-loading will begin and you can click the Go to [Downloads] option on PS4 and Go to Downloads/Uploads option on PS5 to check the download progress.

Interestingly, the GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC file size is quite different for the two PlayStation consoles:

• PS4 - 3.467 GB
• PS5 - 2.589 GB

Note that even after downloading the GTA Online summer update, you will only be able to install and access its contents after the DLC's official release time on June 25, 2024. The time and date at which the update will be installable should be mentioned in the Downloads menu after it has finished downloading, as shown below:

While GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC will also be available on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series, it doesn't seem like these platforms will get the option to pre-load it. Nevertheless, it will also become downloadable on them at its official release time.

The Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC will introduce a lot of fresh content, such as new GTA Online cop cars, civilian vehicles, Dispatch Work, a new bounty hunting business, and more, a glimpse of which was provided in its trailer.

All of these things seem very exciting, and might keep players entertained in their wait for GTA 6 trailer 2 and other information on the sequel.
