GTA 6 Extended Look Runtime Confirmed: PS5 Gameplay Footage Included

Netflix has revealed the duration of today's special broadcast, 'Grand Theft Auto 6: An Extended Look,' and confirmed that it will showcase gameplay captured on the PlayStation 5. This marks the first official glimpse at GTA 6 gameplay, arriving amid a wave of recent leaks that have somewhat overshadowed the hype. Nonetheless, Rockstar is proceeding with its planned reveal, including this timed exclusive with Netflix.

The stream will run for 27 minutes, showcasing PS5 gameplay. According to a Netflix blog post, 'Captured entirely from in-game footage on PlayStation 5, this extended look at the next Grand Theft Auto showcases the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet.'

The decision to feature the PS5 version isn't surprising. Sony has already secured a strong marketing partnership with Rockstar, evidenced by prominent ads on the PS5 and messages urging PS4 owners to upgrade. Sony and Rockstar have also stated that GTA 5 will 'run best' on PS5, likely referring to the more powerful PS5 Pro.

With only hours to go before the broadcast airs on Netflix, followed by a wider release on platforms like YouTube six hours later, anticipation is high. IGN will provide extensive coverage and live reporting as the event unfolds. For a detailed schedule of when the Extended Look debuts on Netflix and YouTube in your timezone, check IGN's guide.
