PS5 owners may want to start deleting games. A reported 210 GB download for Grand Theft Auto VI would make it the largest single install on many consoles.
Rockstar is not the source of that figure. An account on X that scrapes install sizes from the PlayStation Store’s database backend posted it. It’s a datamine, so it stays unconfirmed until Rockstar or Sony say something.
What the scraped listing says
The same data puts the Standard edition at $79.99, with pre-loading opening Nov. 12 and the game releasing at midnight on Nov. 19. Like any backend pull, read it as a strong hint. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Should those dates stick, players get a week of pre-loading ahead of the midnight local-time launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on Nov. 19. Physical copies reportedly come as download codes with no disc, so buying the boxed version won’t cut your download. PC players have longer to wait, since that edition is expected in early 2027.
A launch trailer that plays like a music video
The official launch trailer arrived from Rockstar on Oct. 15. It moves through spots across Leonida, the game’s fictional state, backed by a new track from electronic duo Justice with vocals from SZA, Tame Impala and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.
The track will appear on Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, a soundtrack LP still to come. Cardi B, Morgan Wallen and Travis Scott are also contributing new music to it.
Six radio stations with an odd, entertaining set of DJs
Rockstar confirmed six in-game radio stations earlier this month, along with the DJ personas who host them. Unlike the install size, this is official, and it’s the most entertaining GTA VI news in weeks.
Cocoteo FM is hosted by Bad Bunny and RaiNao, appearing as El Martillo and La Gata. Back Country Radio pairs Morgan Wallen and Lana Del Rey as MW and Delta Dawne, a combination nobody had on their bingo card.
Burna Boy and Palms Trax run AfroBank FM as Burna and Palmsy. The Chamber 106.6 goes to Slayer’s Kerry King and Tom Araya, on air as DJ Kerry and DJ Tom, which means thrash metal hosts can ride along with you through Leonida.
On Flash FM, Robyn and Alex Consani are DJs Robyn and Alex. The last station, Dirty South Classics, has Trick Daddy and Tina hosting as Trick and Tina.
If the scraped listing is accurate, all six stations come inside a 210 GB package.
