The Take

Grand Theft Auto 6 arrives on 19 November at 212 GB, which is less a game and more a second operating system. On a 10 Mbps line, Uswitch calculates the download at about one day and 23 hours. On 1 Gbps it is 28 minutes. Somewhere in between is every Indian household arguing about who is using the Wi-Fi.

The Wire

Grand Theft Auto 6 will release on 19 November with a 212 GB install on PS5 and Xbox Series X and S. Uswitch estimates the download at about one day and 23 hours on a 10 Mbps connection, about 15 hours on 30 Mbps, 28 minutes on 1 Gbps and nine minutes on 3 Gbps. A PC release is unconfirmed.
