YouTube Will Host a 24-Hour Live Stream to Celebrate the Launch of GTA 6

GTA 6 is one week away, and it still feels almost unreal. Practically everyone is getting ready for the big day: the developers, their parent company, and, of course, the players. Meanwhile, YouTube has now announced a major collaboration with the game ahead of launch.

On November 18 at 11 p.m. ET, YouTube will start a massive livestream dedicated to the release of the generation’s most anticipated game. It is called “Launch Day: YouTube’s 24-Hour GTA VI Livestream.” The stream will run for 24 hours, be available in eight languages, and feature streamers and content creators, including TGG and MikeShowSha, who have been sharing details about GTA 6 throughout the year.

YouTube has rebranded its own channel in preparation for the launch of GTA 6, and will have a countdown until launch day.

"We're counting down the minutes until Launch Day: YouTube's 24 Hour GTAVI Live Stream. Set your reminders now and tune in live on November 18th @ 11P ET for our pre-show kickoff."

GTA 6 is getting a huge amount of attention this week. We know that more than 11 million copies have been sold, and potential revenue has passed $1 billion. Yesterday, Rockstar released a new gameplay clip recorded with an in-game smartphone camera. Another video appeared today, once again raising the question of whether it is a video game or real-life footage.

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