GTA VI Set to Occupy a Record 230 GB of Disk Space

Grand Theft Auto VI, slated for release in 2025, is nearing the final stages of development. Recent leaks suggest that the game could occupy an astonishing 230 gigabytes, positioning it among the largest projects in gaming history.

The trend of increasing game sizes has become more pronounced, with blockbusters like Call of Duty, Destiny 2, Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, and Ark: Survival Evolved taking up between 100 to 150 gigabytes due to the need for high-detail textures, models, and expansive worlds.

The leak related to GTA VI highlights that the game's size could set a new benchmark, reaching around 230 gigabytes. It is anticipated that the game will undergo optimization and data compression stages before its official release, which might reduce the final size, but it is clear that Rockstar Games is preparing one of the most extensive and visually striking worlds in the history of the industry.

It has also been noted by the reliable source, the Twitter account PC_Focus, known for accurate game size information, that GTA 6 post-installation might occupy 228.5 GB. This size could be associated with an unoptimized version of the game.
