Netflix made a separate announcement calling the collaboration, "a first-of-its-kind partnership to premiere an extended look at the next evolution in the groundbreaking Grand Theft Auto series, Grand Theft Auto VI.”
The open world crime game has not seen an official promotional trailer since May 6, 2025, when its second official trailer was released to the public. This promo is expected to tide fans over until the game officially launches for the Xbox X|S and PlayStation 5 gaming consoles on Nov. 19, 2026.
Grand Theft Auto VI is the seventh mainline entry in the long-running Grand Theft Auto franchise, releasing 13 years after its predecessor 'Grand Theft Auto V'. Each entry into the series has been zeitgeist-defining for the video game industry as a whole, due to their high production value and benchmark-setting graphical, narrative and technical achievements.
The latest installment of the franchise will follow Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval, a 'Bonnie and Clyde' style couple in the present day as they operate as professional criminals within the fictional state of Leonida, heavily inspired by the US state Florida.

Players are expected to return to Vice City, a fictional setting where 2002's Grand Theft Auto: Vice City took place, inspired by Miami in the eighties. Set in 1986, Vice City was a pastiche, homage and send-up of 1980s culture, politics and art, taking visual and thematic inspiration from Brian De Palma' Scarface as well as the police procedural Miami Vice.
The setting is likely to be updated and reimagined to satirize the Miami of present day, as that is when GTA VI will be taking place.
