Rockstar Games Announced GTA 6 Extended Look Is Coming on August 27

What insiders and rumors have been hinting at for a while has finally been confirmed—Rockstar Games has made an official announcement about the most anticipated game of 2026, Grand Theft Auto VI, confirming a new look at the game later this month.

On its social media, the studio announced Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look will drop August 27 at 3 p.m. ET. Most interesting of all: the premiere's happening on Netflix. It looks like Rockstar Games has struck some kind of partnership with the streaming service, under which exclusive footage will be available on the platform, and it's possible more details about that collaboration will surface soon.

Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look premieres on Netflix Thursday, August 27 at 3 p.m. ET.

Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look will also launch on the official Rockstar Games YouTube channel and the Grand Theft Auto VI site at 9 p.m. ET on August 27.

It's not yet clear exactly what will be shown on August 27, but the "An Extended Look" title suggests Rockstar Games will finally showcase gameplay, and that it could be a genuinely in-depth look at the game—something reliable insider NateTheHate recently hinted at. It’s also worth remembering that Take-Two Interactive's next earnings call is set for August 7, so there's a good chance we're in for a few more surprise announcements too.

For now, you can also find out everything we know about GTA 6 so far—the story, gameplay, map, open world, platforms, and more - as well as how GTA 6 is reshaping the 2026 game calendar and everything about GTA 6 pre-order details: price, bonuses, exact time, and Ultimate Edition.

Grand Theft Auto VI will release on November 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
