GTA 6 can now be downloaded by gamers and is being rolled out across the world ahead of its release date. We have updated download sizes and more. Plus, there are a couple of differences between XBOX and PS5 pre-loading so we’ll be providing you with all of the information you need to know.

Fans will preparing their consoles to install the game so they are ready at midnight local time on November 19th. The game is huge in size so people need this next week or so to download the humongous game.

PS5 Pre-Load Info​


At the time of writing, GTA VI pre-loading has begun on PS5. It will be a staggered period based on your time zone. You will be able to download it to your PS5 when the clock strikes midnight in your local time on Tuesday November 10th. So, it has kicked off with those in New Zealand and will be closely followed by players in Australia. That’s nearly a full day before some parts of the world.

XBOX Series X|S Pre-Load Info​


Meanwhile XBOX is a worldwide, simultaneous pre-load. The game will be able to be pre-loaded from 12am GMT on Tuesday November 10th regardless of where you live. NZ players get it at the same time as west coast US gamers for example. Make sure your console is also up to date as well.

It’s also worth noting that if you are someone picking up a code in box copy you don’t want to wait to download it on the 12th. Simply open the XBOX app on your phone, find GTA VI in the store, then press install to your chosen console. This means the game will be pre-loaded before you’ve even inputted your code.

In terms of download and install size, the game clocks in at around 209.75GB to download and 212GB when installed on PlayStation 5. Meanwhile on XBOX Series X|S, the download comes in at around 225.34 GB. The Japanese version of the game on both consoles will be missing over 1GB of content likely due to censorship.

As Microsoft is charging for pre-orders, people are picking up their code in box copies and pre-loads begin, it is starting to feel real. GTA VI will be in your hands in just several days after over a decade of wait.

With Grand Theft Auto VI going up for pre-load on both PlayStation 5 and XBOX Series X|S, that means more leaks. For example, the game’s main menu music was leaked due to this pre-load which you can listen to here.

In other Grand Theft Auto VI news, we shared how you can play GTA VI nearly a day before release once you have it pre-loaded. Plus, the game’s download size has changed and it reveals some potential censorship.
