AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Netflix confirms a 27-minute runtime and PS5 footage for the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look broadcast, arriving via a timed-exclusive streaming deal.
Netflix has confirmed that the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look broadcast will run for 27 minutes and feature footage captured entirely on a PlayStation 5. According to IGN, the showcase arrives after a tumultuous week of unprecedented leaks, yet Rockstar is moving forward with its carefully orchestrated reveal plans. This unique timed-exclusive partnership with Netflix gives the streaming service a massive win for its gaming initiatives before the footage rolls out to platforms like YouTube six hours later.
The focus on the PS5 version comes as no surprise given Sony and PlayStation's extensive marketing alignment with Rockstar for the blockbuster release. Promotional pushes on the current gen console and messaging directed at legacy hardware owners have made it clear where the marketing focus lies. Beyond the hardware confirmation, recent coverage from IGN highlights returning lifestyle mechanics where daily habits like eating, exercising, and partying will directly alter character physical appearances.
As the industry waits for the broadcast to drop, the scale of development behind the scenes is staggering. Rockstar reportedly doubled its team size to push this massive open world across the finish line. For players watching creator streams and counting down the hours, this deep dive represents the first official look at how the studio plans to define the next era of open world gaming across current gen systems and beyond.
