Rockstar and Netflix Partner for Extended GTA 6 Preview Stream

Rockstar Games presented an extended look at Grand Theft Auto VI through a Netflix-hosted streaming event, marking the first substantial new footage since the game's initial 2023 trailer. The presentation featured the confirmed dual protagonists Lucia and Jason, and the Florida-inspired setting of Leonida, though reports differ on whether this constituted true extended gameplay footage or primarily new cinematic glimpses. Netflix secured a timed exclusive window for the preview before wider release on other platforms, with the broadcast length described as roughly 30 minutes by some accounts. The game remains officially slated for a 2025 console launch, and the marketing partnership between Rockstar and Netflix represents a notable departure from traditional gaming reveal platforms.
