I'm looking for some help here. I recently bought GTA 5 and wanted to know how much space I need for it on my computer. Has anyone else played this game and can tell me how much space I need? I'm wondering because I have limited storage and don't want to buy a new hard drive just for this one game. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

GTA 5 requires around 65GB of hard drive space for the base game. This includes the single-player story mode, Grand Theft Auto Online, and all other content. If you're playing on a console, you'll need to make sure you have enough storage space available. You might also need to download additional content after you've installed the game, so make sure you have enough space for that too.

Grand Theft Auto 5 (GTA 5) is an incredibly large game, and it requires a lot of space on your hard drive to store all of the necessary game data. Depending on the version of the game you have, the size of the game can range from around 50GB to over 80GB.

For the PlayStation 4 version of the game, a minimum of 50GB of hard drive space is required in order to install and run the game. For Xbox One, the minimum required is 59GB, while the PC version requires 65GB. The recommended space for all platforms is at least 80GB, but it can be more depending on the updates and extra content you’ve installed.

In addition to the hard drive space, you’ll also need to set aside extra space for any downloadable content you might buy or additional patches that are released. Some of these add-ons can be fairly large, so it’s a good idea to have a few hundred GB of free space available to ensure that your game runs smoothly.

Overall, you’ll need at least 50GB of hard drive space to install and run GTA 5, but it’s recommended to have at least 80GB of space to make sure you have enough room for future updates and downloadable content.
