What will be shown in Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look?
Rockstar has been extremely quiet about “Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look,” including its official runtime and even whether or not fans can expect to see official gameplay footage, but that hasn’t stopped fans on the internet from generating their own ideas. Rumors began circulating that the special would be broken down into three episodes, though this has been debunked. Additionally, a news article from a BBC Newsbeat segment mentioned that the official runtime would be 30 minutes, but the article in question was redacted. Vice has reported that the special will be about 20 minutes in length, according to a fan that got in touch with Netflix customer support. On the Rockstar Games website, a small teaser for the Extended Look can be seen, but it primarily shows a graphic of the two protagonists.
Along with being one of the most expensive pieces of entertainment to ever be produced thanks to its staggering $1 billion estimated budget, the game has also found itself shrouded in controversy. Along with Rockstar battling leaked information on the series, many fans didn’t like the $100 price tag for the Ultimate Edition. Nonetheless, gamers can finally get some new, official information on August 27 for what is undoubtedly the hottest release in video game history. Considering the hype, some may want to consider taking their minds off things with another open-world game as they wait for GTA 6.
