Rockstar Games is finally ready to show us more of Grand Theft Auto VI, and they are doing it in a way nobody expected. If you have been waiting to see actual gameplay, it is time to log into Netflix.
In a massive, first-of-its-kind deal, Rockstar has partnered with the streaming giant to premiere Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look. This special event is expected to give fans their first proper look at the highly anticipated game before it officially launches on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
What to Expect from the Broadcast
While Rockstar is keeping the exact details a secret, fans are betting on seeing real gameplay, a deeper dive into the modern Vice City, and new mechanics.
The move to Netflix is a huge shift, but it makes sense when you look at the sheer size of the game’s audience. The first trailer for the game, released back in 2023, racked up over 288 million views on YouTube. Netflix’s Vice President of Nonfiction Series, Brandon Riegg, noted that GTA reveals have become “cultural moments,” adding that the anticipation is unprecedented. Promoting a game through the world’s biggest streaming service is like a global concert event, just for gamers.
When and Where to Watch
For those wanting to be the first to see the new footage, you will need to set an early alarm. Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look will stream globally on Netflix at 5:00 am AEST on Friday, August 28.
