Estimating GTA 6 download times based on average internet speeds
With a massive 212GB file size, downloading GTA 6 will take anywhere from 90 minutes to nearly four hours depending on your internet connection.
Rockstar is allowing players to pre-download the roughly 212GB file for GTA 6 a week ahead of its release. Testing on a 1Gbps fiber connection showed a download time of one hour and three minutes, while average US broadband speeds ranging from 143Mbps to 314Mbps would result in install times between roughly 90 minutes and nearly four hours. While hardware like the PS5 Pro, base PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S all support fast Ethernet ports, actual download speeds can be bottlenecked by Wi-Fi interference and digital storefront server demands during heavy launch windows.
