GTA VI: Download Weight on PS5 - Analysis of a Fan and Rockstar Technologies

The speculations on the weight of download and space occupied by Grand Theft Auto VI on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X continue to circulate. According to a Rockstar Games fan, the game will hardly reach exorbitant dimensions, as you might imagine. The analysis is based on the previous experience of the company with file compression, exploiting both Bink and Kraken technologies, the latter developed by Sony for PS5 and proved extremely effective. It is highly likely that Rockstar adopts a new iteration of these technologies, or a proprietary solution, making it unlikely to be excessively heavy downloads. The final weight remains uncertain, but there is a compromise between technical requirements and usability of the game; at the moment, there is no precise information on preload or covers that could reveal more details. The expected release date is 19 November 2026, with support for PS5, Xbox Series X and presumably also for the PS5 Pro (not officially confirmed). The genre remains action, developer Rockstar Games and publisher Take-Two Interactive.
