Grand Theft Auto 6 Extended Preview Will Debut on Netflix This Month

Rockstar Games has confirmed that an extended look at Grand Theft Auto 6 will premiere on Netflix later this month on Thursday, August 27 at 12pm Pacific / 3pm Eastern / 8pm UK. This special event showcase is a first-of-its-kind partnership between the streaming giant and Rockstar, offering fans a deep dive into the highly-anticipated blockbuster.

The program listing reads: "Coming August 27: See an extended look at Grand Theft Auto 6, the next evolution the Grand Theft Auto series." Netflix described the collaboration as a "next generation of storytelling and content," reflecting the unprecedented anticipation and fandom surrounding the game. Grand Theft Auto 6's launch is now imminent, with the game set to release on November 19.

GTA 6's official blurb reveals a story of criminals conspiring across the state of Leonida, where the protagonists must rely on each other to survive. The game has seen a surge in promotional activity following the reveal of the cover art in June and preorders opening. While some fans expected a new trailer, Rockstar instead released screenshots teasing new details about the game.

With GTA 6 preorders off to a strong start, the game's $80 price point has sparked debate among analysts.
