However fans are getting impatient about the lack of gameplay footage with the last trailer for the game coming over a year ago.<\/p>\n<div class=\"td-a-ad id_inline_ad0 id_ad_content-horiz-center\"><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">Advertisement<\/span>  <\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-article-1\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>There had been speculation that Trailer 3 would drop earlier this week ahead of last night\u2019s (August 6) earnings call at publishers Take Two. However, Rockstar Games has now confirmed that fans will be able to get an \u201cextended look\u201d at <i>Grand Theft Auto 6<\/i> on August 27. However the presentation will be exclusive to Netflix subscribers for the first six hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<i>Grand Theft Auto<\/i> reveals have become cultural moments in their own right. The anticipation and fandom around <i>Grand Theft Auto 6 <\/i>is unprecedented, and we\u2019re honored that Rockstar Games has partnered with us to debut the next part of the <i>Grand Theft Auto<\/i> story with Netflix members first,\u201d says Netflix\u2019s Brandon Riegg.\u00a0 \u201cIt\u2019s a reflection of what we hope Netflix is becoming: a place where the most ambitious storytelling, from any medium, can find the biggest possible audience.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look premieres on @netflix Thursday, August 27 at 3 p.m. ET.https:\/\/t.co\/px5rI0eKh7 pic.twitter.com\/IDZO55jY6K<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rockstar Games (@RockstarGames) August 6, 2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The <i>Grand Theft Auto 6: Extended Look<\/i> will premiere on Netflix on August 27 at 8pm before being released more widely at 2am the following morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Fans aren\u2019t impressed that the update is being locked behind a paywall though. \u201c6 hours later?

Theft Auto 6<\/i> is set to launch this November. However fans are getting impatient about the lack of gameplay footage with the last trailer for the game coming over a year ago.<\/p>\n<div class=\"td-a-ad id_inline_ad0 id_ad_content-horiz-center\"><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">Advertisement<\/span>  <\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-article-1\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>There had been speculation that Trailer 3 would drop earlier this week ahead of last night\u2019s (August 6) earnings call at publishers Take Two. However, Rockstar Games has now confirmed that fans will be able to get an \u201cextended look\u201d at <i>Grand Theft Auto 6<\/i> on August 27. However the presentation will be exclusive to Netflix subscribers for the first six hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<i>Grand Theft Auto<\/i> reveals have become cultural moments in their own right. The anticipation and fandom around <i>Grand Theft Auto 6 <\/i>is unprecedented, and we\u2019re honored that Rockstar Games has partnered with us to debut the next part of the <i>Grand Theft Auto<\/i> story with Netflix members first,\u201d says Netflix\u2019s Brandon Riegg.\u00a0 \u201cIt\u2019s a reflection of what we hope Netflix is becoming: a place where the most ambitious storytelling, from any medium, can find the biggest possible audience.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look premieres on @netflix Thursday, August 27 at 3 p.m. ET.https:\/\/t.co\/px5rI0eKh7 pic.twitter.com\/IDZO55jY6K<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rockstar Games (@RockstarGames) August 6, 2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The <i>Grand Theft Auto 6: Extended Look<\/i> will premiere on Netflix on August 27 at 8pm before being released more widely at 2am the following morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Fans aren\u2019t impressed that the update is being locked behind a paywall though. \u201c6 hours later?

This bullshit just helps Rockstar make an even bigger bag of money. God knows how much Netflix paid them for this.
