GTA 6 Storyline (Expected)

GTA 6 is confirmed to arrive first on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Rockstar has not announced PC availability yet, though it is expected to follow months after the console launch. Early estimates suggest the game could require 150GB–200GB of storage on PC and slightly varying sizes on consoles, depending on platform-specific optimisations.
