GTA VI Surpasses Netflix Films in Popularity - Game Presentation Conquers 87 Countries

Netflix revealed the results of the "Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look" screening: the 27-minute GTA 6 presentation garnered 31.1 million views and became the platform's most popular program last week.

The material was a Netflix exclusive for only six hours, after which Rockstar Games published it on YouTube. Between August 27 and August 30, the presentation ranked first in 87 out of 93 countries included in Netflix's global ranking.

On YouTube, the video had accumulated over 17 million views by Tuesday. However, Netflix and YouTube use different counting methods, so direct comparison of results is not possible.

For comparison: the second place among English-language Netflix films was taken by "Whispers Through the Window" with 23.2 million views. Thus, GTA VI surpassed it by almost 8 million views.

The 27-minute presentation is entirely based on footage from the standard PS5 version of the game. Rockstar showed Jason and Lucia, Vice City, gameplay, and story scenes.

GTA VI will be released on November 19, 2026, on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
