What Rockstar actually showed in the Extended Look
Twenty-six minutes of PS5 in-game footage, six hours early on Netflix. Here is every confirmed detail — and everything the internet claimed that Rockstar never said.
Rockstar released "An Extended Look" at 3pm ET on 27 August, exclusively to Netflix subscribers, with a free release on YouTube and the official site six hours later at 9pm ET. It runs just under 26 minutes and was captured entirely in-game on a PlayStation 5.
The hands-off press previews held at Rockstar North lifted their embargo at the same moment, which is why coverage arrived in a single wave rather than a trickle.
We are holding specific feature claims until they appear in coverage published after the embargo lifted. A significant amount of what circulated in the first hour was sourced to a live blog written before the footage existed. Those claims are listed in The Refused File.
