GTA 6 has received an update on Xbox Series X|S on top of the one already spotted on PS5, six days before the November 19 launch. Xboxygen reports a 2.18 GB file offered to players who preloaded the game; Pure Xbox puts it around 2.2 GB, appearing a few hours before its post. Rockstar has said nothing about the contents.
Officially, unknown. The account @gtasix_ (114,000 views), crediting @TexFunz2, claims changes to story files, game executables, shaders, scripts and world data. That is a community reading of the files, not patch notes, and neither Rockstar nor Take-Two has confirmed it. Xboxygen stays cautious: it could just as well be bug fixes, technical tweaks or files needed for the final build.
Pure Xbox says some players see it as the day one patch, while noting another update could still land before next Thursday. It adds you need it to play on November 19, and that anyone who has not installed the game yet will get it in the initial download. Some players do not see it yet, but it should reach every Xbox user.
On PlayStation, the 1.07 GB patch 01.002.000 was flagged earlier today, also with no official detail. The sizes differ between consoles, which is not unusual since the builds are packaged differently.

For players the impact is small: 1 to 2 GB on top of the 200 GB-plus preload, best queued now rather than on launch day. The exact contents remain unknown, so treat lists of changed files with caution until Rockstar publishes notes. The date does not move: see the release page.
