Rockstar Games has confirmed that GTA 6 will require PlayStation firmware version 14.10 or higher to run on PlayStation 5 consoles. This system requirement ensures players have the necessary software updates installed before launching the game.
The specification aligns with standard practice for major AAA releases, where developers set minimum firmware versions to guarantee optimal performance and access to required console features. Players with older firmware versions will need to update their systems before they can start playing.
This is particularly relevant for those preparing their PS5 hardware ahead of the upcoming launch, as it’s one of several technical prerequisites to have ready alongside sufficient storage space and internet connectivity. For fans counting down to release day, checking your firmware version now gives you one less thing to worry about when the game becomes available.
