GTA V's footprint ballooned over its lifetime because GTA Online keeps receiving new heists, vehicles and content packs on top of the single-player campaign. The current PC 'Enhanced' build (launched March 2025) lists a 105 GB SSD requirement, with the actual install landing around 92–105 GB; the older 'Legacy' PC build (the 2015 version) is roughly 110–115 GB. On PS5 and Xbox Series X|S the Expanded & Enhanced edition sits near 90–100 GB. Sizes drift with each update, so leave extra headroom (120 GB+) for patches and cache. You can reclaim space by not installing both Story Mode and GTA Online if a platform lets you split them, though PC installs both together. An SSD is now required on PC for the Enhanced edition and dramatically shortens GTA Online load times; the game also supports faster storage for streaming assets. Always verify the exact figure on your storefront (Steam, Rockstar Games Launcher or Epic) at download time, since Rockstar occasionally re-bundles content.
