GTA 6: An Extended Look is live now on YouTube – watch it here

If you aren’t a Netflix subscriber, the GTA 6 Extended Look is now available to stream on YouTube and Rockstar’s website. 

After a turbulent week of video leaks, Rockstar has finally pulled back the curtain on GTA 6’s gameplay in an official capacity. 

The highly-anticipated sequel looks incredibly impressive, with a vast open world set in the Florida-inspired state of Leonidas, including a reworked Vice City. 

Rockstar debuted the Extended Look on Netflix on Thursday evening, with the footage being exclusive to the streaming service for six hours. Thankfully, if you’re not a fan of Stranger Things or Squid Game, you can now stream it on YouTube or Rockstar’s website. 

It’s exactly the same video and, despite what you might expect, it’s just raw gameplay footage. There’s no voiceover or narration at all, so who knows what random non-gamers must’ve thought of it, if they stumbled upon it on Netflix.

If you’re sold by the footage, GTA 6 is available to pre-order now across the PlayStation and Xbox stores. The standard edition costs £69.99 and the Ultimate Edition – complete with Vice City-inspired cosmetics and exclusive in-game shops – is priced at £89.99. 

Alternatively, you can buy a boxed copy (with a download code instead of a disc) from the likes of Argos and Amazon, at the slightly cheaper price of £67.99. The Ultimate Edition is only available digitally.

Earlier this week, Rockstar released a statement to address the gameplay leaks, describing them as ‘heartbreaking’ for the team. The developer also apologised for the game’s long development and for not sharing gameplay sooner. 

‘We are very sorry that everything has taken as long as it has – from getting the game finished (nearly there!) to sharing more details and official gameplay, and providing the community with everything you want to know,’ the statement read. 

Despite the Extended Look, however, the leaks have continued. The group or individual known as Cyberleek appears to have a playable build, and has been releasing clips daily, supposedly in protest of Rockstar not releasing GTA 6 on a disc. However, they’ve also been asking for funding via cryptocurrency to keep the videos coming.

It’s unclear whether the leaks will stop now that the official reveal has happened, but unless the perpetrator is caught the chances are they won’t.

However, many fans have pointed out how much bad the leaked videos make the game look, compared to the official footage. Not only are they considerably less cinematic but the person playing it doesn’t seem to be very good at controlling the game.

GTA 6 is set to launch worldwide across PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 19, 2026.
