Rockstar Confirms GTA 6 Pre-Load Schedule, Install Size and Physical Map

Rockstar Games has officially announced pre-load timing for Grand Theft Auto VI on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S ahead of its November 19 launch, though reports disagree on the exact dates and install sizes. Some outlets claim the game requires approximately 86-89 GB on consoles, while others cite a figure as high as 212GB for Xbox Series systems; the discrepancy is not resolved in the available material. The company also confirmed that certain physical editions will include a map of the fictional Leonida setting and cover art poster, and some reports state the pre-load date was moved earlier than previously announced.
