Rockstar Confirms Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look Premieres on Netflix This Month
Rockstar has announced that Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look will premiere on Netflix later this month.
Rather than a straightforward GTA 6 Trailer 3, this special event showcase sounds like it will offer fans a far deeper dive on Rockstar’s highly-anticipated blockbuster. Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look will become available to stream via Netflix on Thursday, August 27 at 12pm Pacific / 3pm Eastern / 8pm UK.
Don’t have a Netflix subscription? Do not fear. Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look will then become available to watch via YouTube, though not for another six hours. Its official debut to stream via YouTube will be at 6pm Pacific / 9pm Eastern on August 27, or 2am UK on August 28.
Netflix subscribers can already set an alert to remind them when the special event show becomes available to watch, over at netflix.com/GTAVI. The programme listing offers the following blurb: “Coming August 27: See an extended look at Grand Theft Auto 6, the next evolution the Grand Theft Auto series.”
With GTA 6’s long-awaited and much-delayed launch on November 19 now approaching, fans have been eager to see more of the game beyond the two straightforward trailers seen so far. In particular, there’s a sense that now is the time to see actual GTA 6 gameplay — something this extended look seems likely to feature.
In the meantime, GTA 6 preorders are already off to a stunning start, while analysts have been offering their opinion on what GTA 6’s $80 price point means for other video games. There has been some controversy over Rockstar’s decision not to sell GTA 6 on a disc, and there are some retailers who are refusing to sell GTA 6 due to the game being digital-only. And, on a different note, we have the tech expert verdict on the 63 new screenshots.
