A download never reaches the advertised speed. Protocol overhead, server load and Wi-Fi all take a share.

Download time

3hours 55min

Actual speed: 85 Mbit/s

Finishes within the preload week

Preload opens November 12, 2026, giving you 7 days before launch.

ℹ️ Rockstar has not published the file size. The 150 GB starting value is an estimate — adjust it yourself. For reference: GTA V was about 65 GB at launch and Red Dead Redemption 2 about 110 GB.

How to download faster

  • Use an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi — the difference is often tens of percent.
  • Start as soon as preload opens on Nov 12, not on launch night when servers are congested.
  • Close other downloads and streaming while it runs.
  • Consoles download faster in rest mode than with a game running.
