Rockstar Games has released 26 minutes of *Grand Theft Auto VI* footage, giving its clearest account yet of how Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos will move through Vice City and the wider state of Leonida.

[Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look](https://www.rockstargames.com/VI/an-extended-look?ref=lrngwrld.com) premiered on Netflix on 27 August before appearing on Rockstar’s YouTube channel and official website six hours later. Rockstar says the presentation was captured entirely from in-game footage on PlayStation 5.

The video moves between missions, open-world activity and cinematic sequences rather than showing one uninterrupted play session. It establishes Jason and Lucia as a couple operating together, with the player able to switch between them in free roam. Some jobs keep the pair together, while others split their routes before bringing them back into the same operation.

Rockstar shows a drug deal collapsing into violence, a rooftop briefing, a police chase, a parachute jump and a gala that becomes a shootout. The footage also travels beyond Vice City through the Leonida Keys, wetlands, industrial districts and more rural parts of the state. These locations expand on the people and places already described on [Rockstar’s GTA VI site](https://www.rockstargames.com/VI?ref=lrngwrld.com).

Several mechanical changes are visible. Police appear to track more than a simple wanted-star total, while characters can change weapons without opening the full selection wheel. Vehicle entry can involve breaking a window or using a tool on the lock, and Jason and Lucia’s appearance changes across scenes that show exercise, food and fatigue.

The presentation’s most important technical claim is the platform on which it was captured. Rockstar identifies the footage as running on PlayStation 5, but it has not published final resolution or frame-rate targets for any console. An [analysis reported by GamesRadar](https://www.gamesradar.com/games/grand-theft-auto/gta-6-at-60fps-is-unlikely-on-console-and-will-be-genuinely-challenging-on-pc-tech-analysts-say/?ref=lrngwrld.com) found that the uploaded footage appears to maintain a mostly stable 30 frames per second, while cautioning that an edited video cannot provide a complete performance test.

Rockstar has not announced a 60fps performance mode. It has also not said what differences players should expect between the standard PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X|S versions. The presentation demonstrates the density and visual target of the game, but it does not settle how final builds will balance resolution, effects and responsiveness.

The release date remains 19 November 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Rockstar has not announced a PC version or release window. [Take-Two’s pre-order announcement](https://www.take2games.com/ir/news/rockstar-games-announces-pre-orders-grand-theft-auto-vi?ref=lrngwrld.com) prices the standard edition at $79.99 and the Ultimate Edition at $99.99.

Rockstar’s [support documentation](https://support.rockstargames.com/articles/4QfG4FmZCf5W1gS8jy4UVT/grand-theft-auto-vi-platform-editions-and-versions?ref=lrngwrld.com) says the boxed version will contain a download code rather than a disc. Physical codes and digital preloads are due to become available on 12 November, one week before launch.

The Extended Look is therefore the most substantial official demonstration of *GTA VI* so far, but it remains a controlled presentation rather than an independent hands-on test. It answers what the game is trying to show and how its two protagonists fit together. Performance modes, a PC timetable and the behaviour of the finished open world remain unanswered.
