PlayStation 5 owners in the UK are facing questions about storage requirements ahead of Grand Theft Auto VI's scheduled release on 19 November 2026, after an unverified claim suggested the game could require 210GB of space.
Rockstar Games has not confirmed the figure, and there is no evidence that players must upgrade to a PS5 Pro.The speculation follows a report published by LADbible on 2 November, which cited a 27 October social media post attributed to PlayStation Game Size.
According to the report, the post suggested GTA 6 could have a download size of approximately 210GB.LADbible also cited a separate claim attributed to Cyberleek, placing the game above 200GB.
Neither estimate has been independently verified, leaving players without a confirmed figure for the game's download or installation requirements.GTA 6's Rumoured 210GB File Could Take up Nearly a Third of PS5 StorageThe original PlayStation 5, launched with an 825GB solid-state drive, offers approximately 667GB of usable storage, according to figures cited by LADbible.If GTA 6 required a 210GB installation, it would occupy approximately 31.5 per cent of that capacity.
Players with extensive installed game libraries could therefore face difficult decisions about which titles to keep.Historical comparisons offer some perspective, although they are not directly equivalent.
LADbible cited figures attributed to GTA VI-Galaxy suggesting that the PlayStation 3 version of Grand Theft Auto V occupied approximately 17.2GB, while Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas required around 4.2GB.Those estimates concern older console generations and do not establish the size of Rockstar's forthcoming release.Importantly, a large installation would not automatically require a new console.Sony allows PS5 owners to expand their storageusing compatible M.2 SSDs.....
