Yes — but on a base PS5 (825 GB, ~667 GB usable) GTA 6 at the estimated 150–200 GB will eat a quarter to a third of your entire drive. Plan what you're deleting before preload opens Nov 12.

Series S owners have the tightest squeeze: one more big game plus GTA 6 fills the drive. An expansion card or cleanup week is almost mandatory.
Cleanup strategy before Nov 12
Sort installed games by size; anything untouched for 3+ months goes first (saves stay in the cloud).
Don't buy an SSD in a panic on Nov 18 — if you need one, order it while it's calm.
Leave ~20 GB headroom over the 200 GB worst case for the day-one patch.
