Last Updated: February 24, 2024

Question: While installing the PSN downloadable version of GTAV, I am encountering a 80029564 error. What should I do?

Answer: Please try deleting all game content, and then re-downloading and installing the game. You can delete any installation data by going to the Game Data Utility through the Game column of the XMB.

Also try a "Restore File System" and "Rebuild Database" through the PS3 Safe Mode menu. These will not result in loss of data.  For directions, please see: https://www.playstation.com/en-in/get-help/help-library/system---hardware/power---system-stability/playstation-3-safe-mode-information/
