PS5 Pro Sells Out as GTA VI Preload Date Nears

0:00 / 0:00

Listen to the story

The PS5 Pro is a video game console. It is sold out in many places now. People want to buy it, but shops do not have it.

At the same time, a new game is coming. It is called GTA VI. Many people want to play it.

Before a game comes out, players can do a preload. This means they put the game on their console early. Then they can play it fast on the first day.

The preload for GTA VI starts next week. Players will know the time and the file size of the game.

Some people ask if they can play GTA VI on an older console, like the Xbox One. One idea is to use cloud gaming. This means the game runs on a big computer far away. You watch it on your screen. This can let old consoles play new games.

Many gamers are excited about these two big stories. The PS5 Pro is hard to find. GTA VI is almost ready to play.
