Short answer
ConfirmedRockstar says the GTA 6 pre-load needs up to 212 GB of free space, depending on your console. PlayStation tells PS5 owners to clear a minimum of 212 GB before pre-loading. Free the space before November 19 so a launch-day patch or the main download does not stall.
The detail
On PS5, check Settings > Storage. PlayStation Support suggests deleting data or moving it to another storage device to make room.
Rockstar has not published a separate Xbox figure beyond “up to 212 GB depending on your device.”
