GTA 6 Reveal Draws 31.1M Netflix Views, Tops Charts in 87 Countries

Grand Theft Auto 6’s reveal showcase pulled in 31.1 million views on Netflix between its August 27 debut and the end of the platform’s weekly Top 10 measurement window on August 30, according to PC Gamer.

That made the GTA 6 presentation Netflix’s most-watched title of the week. The platform classified the showcase as an English-language film, where it topped the chart in 87 of 93 countries.

Netflix had secured an exclusivity agreement for the reveal, though that window lasted just six hours before the video appeared elsewhere. PC Gamer reports that the showcase has since accumulated 17 million views on YouTube, but the figures cannot be directly compared because Netflix and YouTube measure views differently.

It is not known how much Take-Two received from the short-term Netflix exclusivity deal. The publisher has not disclosed its terms.
