    Did the GTA 6 Extended Look Live Up to the Hype? Fans React After Years of Waiting

    For 26 minutes on a Thursday, the internet collectively stopped to watch Grand Theft Auto VI, Rockstar Games’ long-awaited next entry in its (in)famous open-world crime series.

    Netflix aired an extended video showcasing official GTA 6 gameplay for the first time, following roughly a week of rampant leaks. The reveal offered fans a detailed look at the highly anticipated game after 13 years of waiting and steadily growing hype.

    Fans react to the GTA 6 gameplay reveal

    After seeing a series of out-of-context clips leaked from an older build, social media could have been expected to tear the game apart. Instead, Rockstar Games appears to have done enough to satisfy its fans, judging by the reaction across social media. Even Major League Baseball weighed in.

    Several embedded social media posts were unavailable at the time of publication.

    Whether that enthusiasm lasts will become clearer on Nov. 19, when Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled to finally launch.

    GTA 6 Netflix Extended Look: Release Time Today

    After months of speculation, Rockstar Games is finally set to show official Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay footage ahead of the game’s November release.

    When to watch the GTA VI extended look

    Rockstar Games will present “an extended look” at GTA VI on Netflix today, Aug. 27, at 3 p.m. ET. Viewers who cannot or do not want to watch it on Netflix will be able to see the same footage on Rockstar’s YouTube channel at 9 p.m. ET.

    The Netflix website describes the event by stating, “Coming August 27: See an extended look at Grand Theft Auto VI, the next evolution in the groundbreaking Grand Theft Auto series.

    Rockstar and Netflix have not called the presentation a trailer, however, leaving the exact format unclear. Rockstar’s announcement also did not include new footage or a detailed description of what fans will see.

    What could the GTA VI footage show?

    Fans have been speculating for months about the arrival of the next GTA VI trailer. With the game scheduled to launch on Nov. 19 and very little official gameplay shown so far, the extended look could offer one of the clearest previews yet of Rockstar’s highly anticipated open-world game.

    In recent days, leakers have also shared purported footage online, but this Netflix and YouTube presentation will be the first official look at the game in this format.

    It is also unusual for a major game trailer to debut on a paid streaming service. Rockstar’s decision to use Netflix for the initial broadcast makes the GTA VI reveal notably different from the industry’s usual announcement strategy.
