Grand Theft Auto VI’s Extended Look Will Arrive on Netflix and YouTube August 27
Netflix will show the extended look at 3 p.m. ET, while Rockstar's YouTube channel and the game's website will follow at 9 p.m. ET; the presentation's runtime remains unknown.
Rockstar Games announced that Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look will premiere on Netflix Thursday, August 27, 2026, with the full schedule detailed in its Grand Theft Auto VI Newswire announcement. Netflix will carry the presentation at 3 p.m. ET.
The presentation will provide the first extended look at Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay following the trailers released so far. Rockstar released the first trailer in December 2023 and the second in May 2025, and neither included actual gameplay footage. Rockstar and Netflix have not announced how long the extended look will run.
It will then arrive at 9 p.m. ET on August 27 through the official Rockstar Games YouTube channel and the Grand Theft Auto VI website. That gives viewers a six-hour gap between the Netflix premiere and the online release.
The first showing requires a Netflix account. Viewers who do not want to pay for Netflix can wait for the YouTube release six hours later.
