Gta Vi First Look Most Watched Title On Netflix 31 Million Views Beats Robert De Niro The Whisper Man Outer Banks S5

. And yet, neither of these titles was the most-watched on the streaming service during the week. That win went to the premiere of gameplay footage from the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA VI).

The near-27-minute video, showcasing the open-world crime game ahead of its planned November 19 release, marks the first time the company has featured marketing for an upcoming video game. The last edition of the game sold more than 230 million copies, and the new one is expected to be one of the most lucrative entertainment products of all time.

Developed and published by Rockstar Games, GTA VI is the eighth main Grand Theft Auto game, following Grand Theft Auto V (2013), and the sixteenth entry overall. Set within the fictional US state of Leonida, based on Florida, the game follows a criminal couple: Jason Duval, who worked for local drug runners in the Leonida Keys after serving in the Army; and Lucia Caminos, the series' first non-optional female protagonist, who was imprisoned at Leonida Penitentiary after fighting for her family from Liberty City. Following a failed bank heist, the duo encounters a state-wide conspiracy and is forced to protect each other.

In the days ahead of the premiere, more than a dozen clips from Grand Theft Auto VI were leaked online. Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., the company behind Grand Theft Auto, has subpoenaed the chat company Discord Inc. as it looks to find the leaker.
