Home›Trailers›GTA 6 Trailers: Every Trailer, Extended Look and What’s Next

Update – 17 October 2026: The launch trailer pulled 27.85M YouTube views and 1.4M likes in its first day – full breakdown.
✅ CONFIRMED
Rockstar has published two numbered GTA 6 trailers and one longer showcase, and all three remain the only official moving look at Leonida before the 19 November 2026 launch. This hub puts every GTA 6 trailer in one place with dates, runtimes, songs and what each video actually confirmed.
Quick answer: There are two official GTA 6 trailers — Trailer 1 from December 2023 and Trailer 2 from May 2025 — plus Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look, a 26-minute showcase from August 2026. Nothing has been released under the name Trailer 3. All three videos are embedded below with a full comparison.
Key takeaways
- Trailer 1 premiered early on 4 December 2023 after a leak, ran 1:31 and introduced Lucia, Jason and modern Vice City.
- Trailer 2 arrived 6 May 2025, ran 2:47 and was captured in-game on PlayStation 5 in equal parts gameplay and cutscenes.
- An Extended Look premiered 27 August 2026 on Netflix, then reached YouTube the same evening, running 26:48 of in-game footage.
- Each video carries a different licensed song, and together they are still the clearest official picture of Leonida’s regions and cast.
- Rockstar has never announced a numbered Trailer 3, so searches for it lead to the Extended Look instead.
How many GTA 6 trailers are there?
Rockstar has released two videos it calls trailers and one longer presentation it does not. Trailer 1 landed in December 2023, Trailer 2 followed in May 2025, and An Extended Look arrived in August 2026. Together they total just over 31 minutes of official footage, and no Trailer 3 exists under that name.
That distinction matters because fan-made edits and re-uploads often label the August showcase as Trailer 3. Rockstar’s own Newswire announcement and video titles keep the numbering at two. If you only watch three official videos, watch the three embedded on this page — Trailers 1 and 2 plus the Extended Look — rather than any countdown-named upload elsewhere. For the full launch context around them, see our GTA 6 release date and countdown hub.
What did GTA 6 Trailer 1 reveal?
Trailer 1 was a 91-second announcement cut that named the game, introduced Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval as a pair, and confirmed a modern-day return to Vice City inside the wider state of Leonida. It closed on a 2025 window that has since moved twice, first to May 2026 and then to 19 November 2026.
Rockstar had scheduled the premiere for 5 December 2023, but a leaked copy spread online on the evening of 4 December, so the studio published the real trailer roughly fifteen hours early. Set to Tom Petty’s music, the montage raced through beaches, swamps, convenience-store robberies and social-media clips filmed inside the fiction. YouTube confirmed it set a 24-hour record for a non-music debut, passing 93 million views in its first day. Our GTA 6 Trailer 1 shot-by-shot breakdown logs what every beat established, and the GTA 6 characters hub tracks how Lucia and Jason’s introductions have held up since.
What did GTA 6 Trailer 2 reveal?
Trailer 2, released 6 May 2025, shifted the focus from announcement to evidence. Rockstar described it as captured entirely in-game on PlayStation 5, in equal parts gameplay and cutscenes, and used its 2:47 runtime to widen the view from Vice City to the Leonida Keys, Grassrivers and Port Gellhorn while introducing more of the supporting cast.
The second trailer arrived four days after Rockstar confirmed the first delay, so its job was to reassure players that the longer wait had a visible shape. It leaned into the Jason and Lucia partnership, showed daily life in the Keys and gave the first sustained look at how the pair move through missions together. Rockstar said the launch reached 475 million views across platforms in 24 hours, a figure reported at the time by The Hollywood Reporter and repeated across trade coverage; the YouTube upload alone passed 80 million views in under two days. Our GTA 6 Trailer 2 breakdown and the GTA 6 map guide to the six regions of Leonida unpack what it showed location by location, while the GTA 6 gameplay and new mechanics hub separates confirmed systems from trailer editing.
What is GTA 6: An Extended Look?
An Extended Look is Rockstar’s longest official video, a 26-minute presentation premiered on Netflix on 27 August 2026 before arriving on YouTube and Rockstar’s site six hours later. Rockstar presents it as captured entirely from in-game footage on PlayStation 5, and it functions as the closest thing to a gameplay reveal the studio has published.
Unlike the two trailers, the Extended Look is not cut as a single music-led montage. It stays inside Leonida for longer stretches, letting conversations, driving and on-foot exploration play out without cutting away every few seconds. That makes it the best single reference for how the finished game is meant to feel moment to moment, and the video most worth re-watching alongside the first six GTA 6 radio stations Rockstar revealed and the GTA 6 soundtrack guide. Players preparing storage can pair it with the GTA 6 pre-load and download size guide ahead of the 12 November pre-load.
Is there a GTA 6 Trailer 3?
No. As of October 2026, Rockstar has not announced, teased or published a video called Trailer 3, and its Newswire and YouTube channel list only Trailer 1, Trailer 2 and An Extended Look. When players search for Trailer 3 today, the August 2026 Extended Look is the official video they are looking for.
Could another numbered trailer still arrive before launch? It remains possible with the GTA 6 price and editions compared hub and pre-orders already live, but nothing in Rockstar’s 2026 pattern promises one. The studio announced the Extended Look only three weeks before it aired, so a surprise drop cannot be ruled out — but until Rockstar publishes it, any upload titled Trailer 3 is unofficial. This page will be updated at the top with a fresh date stamp if that changes, rather than quietly rewritten.
Which songs play in each GTA 6 trailer?
Each official video is built around a different licensed track: Trailer 1 uses Tom Petty’s “Love Is a Long Road”, Trailer 2 uses The Pointer Sisters’ “Hot Together”, and the Extended Look closes on an extended version of the game’s own theme that Rockstar has not released separately. Streaming for both licensed songs spiked sharply after their trailers debuted.
Those three cues are also the safest soundtrack facts available before launch, because Rockstar has credited them through the videos themselves. The wider album and radio picture is larger and still unfolding, which is why this trailers hub links out to the dedicated soundtrack coverage instead of repeating unconfirmed tracklists here. Prices for every way to buy the game, including the album’s separate editions, sit in the editions hub linked above.
GTA 6 trailers compared
| Video | Release date | Runtime | Format | Headline reveal |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trailer 1 | 4 December 2023 (published early after a leak) | 1:31 | Announcement montage | Lucia, Jason, Vice City and Leonida named; original 2025 window |
| Trailer 2 | 6 May 2025 | 2:47 | In-game on PS5, equal parts gameplay and cutscenes | Wider cast and regions, Jason and Lucia partnership in motion |
| An Extended Look | 27 August 2026 (Netflix first, YouTube six hours later) | 26:48 | Long-form in-game presentation on PS5 | Longest continuous look at exploration, driving and daily life |
What this means
Three videos across thirty-three months tell a deliberate story about how Rockstar wants this launch understood. The first sold a place and a pair of protagonists. The second answered the delay with proof of play. The third stopped selling and simply showed the game running, which is why its half-hour runtime matters more than any view record: by August 2026, Rockstar no longer needed to convince anyone the game existed.
For players, the practical value of this hub is sequencing. Watch Trailer 1 for the promise, Trailer 2 for the systems and the Extended Look for the texture, and you have seen everything Rockstar has officially chosen to show before reviews and launch footage arrive. Anything beyond these three videos — however polished it looks in a feed — is not Rockstar evidence, and our news desk treats it that way.
