GTA 6 comes out in less than 10 days and Xfinity wants to put gamers on the path to playing as quickly as possible, which is why it’s announcing a temporary speed boost for Xfinity subscribers so that they can download the game more quickly. GTA 6 officially launches on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles, and it’s going to be a HUGE game with a file size that sits around 212GB in total. In other words, clear out some space and some of your time because you’re going to be waiting around a while for the game to finish installing.
However, you can mitigate that with the Xfinity speed boost, at least to some degree. It’s worth noting that even with a speed boost, download times are probably going to be lengthy if you end up downloading the game on launch day right when it goes live. Launch days are notorious for server slowdowns and if the majority of players are going to be downloading on day one, most of those people are going to try to download the game at the same time. Everyone also has to download a digital copy, since Rockstar confirmed that there isn’t a physical version at this time. This is where the preloads come in.
Xfinity will boost speeds for GTA 6 up to 2Gbps
Xfinity will be boosting speeds up to 2Gbps for those who activate the boost. This will be a free speed boost for 15 days, with the activation period starting now. You do also have to activate it. Xfinity makes it clear that this is not an automatic thing. Additionally, it says that the redemption period ends on December 3. So the boost will last for 15 days from the point you redeem.
Importantly, the speeds are being boost “up to” 2Gbps. You will not be guaranteed to get those maximum speeds, but they should be faster than what you already have. To activate this boost, you can go into the Xfinity app or go to the membership page in your browser, click on the speed boost promo, claim it to activate, and that’s it according to Xfinity.
