GTA 6 Leaks: Pre-Orders, Game Size, Maps, Characters, Companion App & More

Despite numerous delays, GTA VI continues to captivate gamers worldwide with an anticipated release set for May 26, 2026. Rumors about the game’s features, size, and gameplay keep fueling excitement.

Game Size and Platforms

While Rockstar Games hasn’t officially confirmed the file size, leaks suggest GTA VI will require between 150GB to 300GB of storage—likely due to hyper-realistic graphics and expansive content. The game will launch exclusively on current-gen consoles, including PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. PC players may have to wait at least a year after the console release. Pre-orders are expected to open 5 to 8 months before launch, possibly by late 2025. Notably, the game will not be available on older consoles like PS4 or Xbox One.

Expanded Map

The upcoming GTA installment promises a massive map that goes well beyond the iconic Vice City. Rockstar reportedly plans to incorporate real-world elements, making the map larger and more detailed than previous entries.

New Characters and Storyline

For the first time, GTA VI introduces a female lead character alongside Jason, forming a duo inspired by the infamous Bonnie and Clyde. The story is expected to feature multiple endings, depending on the relationship dynamics between Jason and Lucia—whether they fall in love or grow apart.

Companion App and Social Media Features

Leaks reveal Rockstar may be developing a companion app for GTA VI, as suggested by a recent job listing seeking mobile app developers skilled in iOS and Android. Following in GTA V’s footsteps, this app could offer in-game social media functionality, enhancing player interaction and immersion.

Overall, GTA VI aims to redefine open-world gaming with its innovative features, rich storytelling, and next-gen technology, making it one of the most eagerly awaited releases of 2026.
