Ignore guessed file sizes

Search results and social posts may present estimates as facts. Until Rockstar or the platform stores publish the requirement, treat every exact number as unconfirmed.

PS5

Use a compatible M.2 SSD

PS5 supports compatible M.2 SSD expansion. Check Sony's current requirements before buying because heatsink, dimensions and performance specifications matter.

XBOX

Use an expansion card for native play

Xbox Storage Expansion Cards are designed to match the internal SSD experience. A USB drive can store games, but current-generation titles may need to be moved back to compatible high-speed storage to play.

FREE OPTION

Remove or archive games first

Before spending money, delete games you can reinstall or move older titles to external USB storage. Wait until the confirmed GTA VI requirement is visible.

Source policy: Console capability claims are checked against PlayStation, Xbox and Rockstar. GTA VI-specific display modes and final storage size remain unconfirmed.
