At long last, you can now install Grand Theft Auto 6 on your console via preloading, or at least you can if you live in Australia or New Zealand. Preloading begins in all regions at midnight local time, so people in the US are almost there.

With preloading now live, people have dug through the files and found things they weren't intended to see. That includes references to things like "join Session," "launch Activity," and "launch Multiplayer Activity." People are taking these to be references to a new form of GTA Online.

Rockstar has said GTA 6 is a single-player game, but it’s expected to add some form of online multiplayer at some point. Just because "Multiplayer" was found in the game's files, that doesn't necessarily mean online functionality will be available at launch--it's likely coming sometime later.

People have theorized that GTA 6's story and Online could be separate games. That remains to be seen, but those who have the game preloaded have discovered that GTA 6's "Story" is an individual download within the game's files. Whatever the case, experts and insiders believe GTA 6's new online experience will launch at some point in 2027.

Additionally, the datamining effort led to some discoveries about what Rockstar might be cooking up in terms of PS5 Pro support. People believe they found references to 120Hz support on PS5 Pro, along with multi-frame super resolution, which is known as PSSR on PS5 Pro.

Rockstar has yet to announce any specifics about GTA 6 for PS5 Pro, and the game's trailers so far have been captured on a standard PS5.
