GTA 6 pre-loading hours have been announced

Rockstar Games shared the GTA 6 preload hours schedule for players who pre-ordered, and the process starts tonight. The game has until November 19th to be released, but the download window opens on the night between November 9th and November 10th. Moreover, the start time is not the same on both consoles.

GTA 6 preload times are different on PS5 and Xbox

According to Rockstar's official calendar, the hours for players in Türkiye are as follows:

PlayStation 5: Regional local time applies. The download will start at 00:00 on Tuesday, November 10, that is, at midnight tonight.

Xbox Series This means 03:00 on November 10, Türkiye time.

So PS5 players will be able to start downloading three hours earlier. On the Xbox side, the clock comes at the same time for everyone. For this reason, Xbox players in Türkiye will be able to start downloading in the morning, not at midnight.

212 GB free space required

The file size of the game will be up to 212 GB depending on the console. The information on Rockstar Games' support page and the warnings of PlayStation Blog give this figure. The large map and high visual quality will put a lot of pressure on the storage space of the consoles.

So it pays to check the free space on your console before booting. For example, you can delete games you do not use to free up space. Because if there is not enough space during downloading, the process will stop before it starts.

Play without waiting for release day

GTA 6 will be released on November 19. Players who start the preload tonight will be able to enter the game on launch day without having to download files. Additionally, once the download window opens, it does not matter at what time you download the files.

Finally, the process is the same for anyone who pre-orders: download begins, game opens on release day. All you have to do is prepare your console and internet connection in advance.
