Despite being announced at the end of last year, it seems that theGrand Theft Auto VIrumour mill continues to spin at full steam ahead.
After years of rumours,GTA VIwas finally revealedto the world in December 2023 with its first official trailer and it did not disappoint. TheGTA VItrailer has beensmashing recordssince its reveal as fans eagerly await thearrival of the next trailerthat will hopefully give us a taste of what lies beyond the returning Miami-inspired location of Vice City.

Given the mass hype and the YouTube trailer edging closer to 200 million views, not to mention thatGTA Vis one of the most successful video games of all time, it’s safe to assume thatGTA VIis on course to becoming a massive deal, not only in terms of critical reception but in sheer scope too.

A lot of speculation has led us to believe thatGTA VIwill have the highest RRPat retail when it finally arrives next year. Moreover, assuming thatGTA VIwill likely provide the biggest and most immersive open-world map seen in video games, we can expect it to take up a large chunk of hard drive space.
The estimate was made as a result ofGTA VIleaks that were making the rounds in 2022 with the leaked early build coming in at an estimated 80GB. This led ReddituserDenso95 to analyse the leaked build and concluded thatGTA VIwould be just under 200GB.
That being said, given the size of many current-gen titles weighing between 150GB to 200+GB for the likes ofStar Wars Jedi: SurvivorandCall of Duty: Modern Warfare III, the estimatedGTA VIfile size should come as no surprise. However, ifGTA VIis 200GB at launch, given the fact that it will receive post-launch updates and added content, it’s safe to assume that 200GB could be a minimum estimate.

The file size is an estimate at this time because Rockstar Games hasn’t officially revealed how much hard drive spaceGTA VIwill gobble up but 200GB doesn’t seem that bad all things considered. Hopefully, we’ll learn just how much spaceGTA VIwill require in the coming months.
GTA VIwill be released in 2025 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. A PC launch hasn’t been announced yet, but we’re sure that will be announced soon.
