GTA 6 Netflix Extended Look Live Now - Here Are All the New Things We've Learned 1

Years in the making, our first look at GTA 6 gameplay is available now... on Netflix. As the video is behind a subscription service's paywall, we cannot host it here on the site just yet. There's a six-hour exclusivity window, and the deep dive will be uploaded to YouTube later.

Here's when the GTA 6 Extended Look will be live on YouTube:

  • North America: 6pm (Thu) PDT / 7pm (Thu) MDT / 8pm (Thu) CDT / 9pm (Thu) EDT
  • UK/Ire: 2am BST
  • Europe: 3am CEST / 4am EEST
  • Asia/Oceania: 10am JST / 9am AWST / 11am AEST

Between now and then, we're going to be watching the Extended Look on Netflix multiple times over and bringing you all the new details and important stories Rockstar has to share. Please see below for lots of new things we've learned.

Here Are the New GTA 6 Screenshots

Interact with NPCs Red Dead Redemption 2 Style

When playing as Jason or Lucia, you can hold a trigger button and select from a few different prompts to activate some interactions with them. This is just like what was in Red Dead Redemption 2.

There's a Karma System

You can pet a dog to gain positive karma, as the Extended Look reveals. Then, later on in the video, Lucia gains negative karma as she's escaping a store heist.

Relax at Your House with Drinks and TV Adverts

During one scene, Jason is waiting for Lucia to get ready. To pass the time, he has a choice of what beer to grab from the fridge and then sits down to watch some TV, and some adverts take up the full screen.

You Can Get a Six Star Wanted Level

The sixth star on the Wanted level system is back! Absent from GTA 5, who knows what you'll face when you reach the sixth star.

Tons of Side Activities

As the Extended Look progresses, we get quick glimpses of the optional activities on offer for Jason and Lucia. There are full-on track races, jet skis, weight lifting, and scuba diving all shown off.

You Can Swap Characters Instantly

While Jason and Lucia are together, you’re able to switch control between them instantaneously. For example, you can drive a car as one, or swap to the other in the passenger seat.

When the characters are apart, you can still swap from one to the other, but it’ll take a few seconds, transitioning just like in GTA 5.

Some Areas Have a Lot of NPCs

There are some locations throughout the map that will have a very dense population of non-player characters going about their business. In the video, we see Jason weaving his way through an incredibly crowded night club.

Bullet Time

When needed, you’re able to activate a Dead Eye-style bullet time mode, slowing time down to a crawl. During this phase, you can target highlighted weak spots on enemies, such as their head, hands, or joints.

It Stuns on PS5

The look at GTA 6 ends by saying it was all captured on a PS5. It's not stated whether that's a base PS5 or PS5 Pro, but it looks incredible.

You Determine Jason and Lucia's Relationship

At the start of the game, Jason and Lucia want to be in a romantic relationship together. However, whether that actually happens or not is seemingly up to you. It appears there will be some decision-making throughout the campaign, and you need to make sure the two characters are spending time together to allow that love to blossom.

A Criminal Profile Is Built Around Your Illegal Actions

As you commit crimes during your playthrough, the game will build your Criminal Profile. This is mostly about your actions in free roam, where performing consistent actions will skew it in specific ways. Alternatively, you can also improve your Criminal Profile by throwing away your rubbish in dustbins.

Cops Don't Appear on the Minimap

Rockstar has done away with showing cops on the minimap; now, you have to use the Focus mechanic to see them. The minimap simply flashes and shows your waypoint marker. You'll know if the cops have an idea of your appearance and what car you're driving, but that's about it.

Evading the Police Will Be Tougher

In GTA 6, escaping the range of the police chasing you won’t be enough to get the heat off you. Small symbols beneath the Wanted star rating indicate they know your face, what clothes you’re wearing, if you’re armed, and so on.

This means the cops might spot you even if you’ve previously outrun them, so you’ll have to pack a change of clothes, maybe get a haircut, anything that’ll throw them off your scent.
