Rockstar is about to give us the biggest look at GTA 6 yet — and it's doing it somewhere unusual. Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look premieres on Netflix on Thursday, August 27, 2026, before rolling out everywhere else. Here's exactly when and where to watch, what to expect, and how to avoid the flood of fakes.
GTA 6 · 19 NOV 2026
When to watch — times by region
Netflix premiere (3 p.m. ET, Aug 27):

| US East (ET) | 3:00 PM |
| US Pacific (PT) | 12:00 PM |
| UK (BST) | 8:00 PM |

Where to watch it
- Netflix (first): subscribers get it six hours early. It may appear in Netflix's "worth the wait" or upcoming sections, and you can set a reminder in the app.
- Rockstar Games YouTube channel + GTA VI website (free): the official upload goes live at 9 p.m. ET for everyone.
What to expect
This is widely seen as trailer 3 in all but name — likely the most substantial look at GTA 6 before launch. Expect:
- A deeper dive into Jason and Lucia and their story across Leonida.
- More of Vice City and surrounding regions.
- Possibly the clearest look yet at how the game actually plays.
Whatever it shows, it won't change the plan: GTA 6 arrives November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Get ready for launch
If the Extended Look convinces you (it will), pre-ordering before November 20 still includes the free Vintage Vice City Pack.
