Grand Theft Auto 6 reveal live coverage: breaking down the Netflix 'extended look' event

After years of speculation and rumors, Rockstar is finally giving us a deeper official look at Grand Theft Auto 6. (Unlike the various unofficial looks we've been getting courtesy of a certain vegetable.)
The GTA 6 "Extended Look" airs Thursday, August 27 on Netflix at 12 pm PDT/3 pm EDT/8 pm BST. Six hours later, it'll be available on Rockstar's YouTube channel.
Rockstar has not said exactly what the video will entail, but we're assuming we'll see a good amount of gameplay and find out more about our two lead characters, Lucia and Jason. We'll be responding live to the reveal in the blog feed below, cataloging all the details and sharing reactions from around the web.
GTA 6 is due out on consoles on November 19. There's frustratingly still no PC release date, and Rockstar is unlikely to speak on that anytime soon. Perhaps we'll at least hear something about GTA Online, which has been conspicuously absent from the conversation so far.
The time has come! Reminder that, if you don't have a Netflix subscription, the video will be available on YouTube six hours from now. But we'll be documenting what we see over the next several hours, and will grab stills images and clips of the most interesting stuff.
It's almost time. The anticipation for this big reveal has perhaps been dulled by the leaks that preceded it, but I still find myself quite curious to see what Rockstar is going to show.
So far, we've gotten the impression that GTA 6 is going to be something of a hybrid between previous GTAs and Red Dead Redemption 2, and that may manifest in deeper ways than we've seen from the infamous vegetable's clips.
I don't expect to hear much, or possibly anything, about GTA Online, but even if it's omitted, the fact of its omission will be notable. Rockstar surely has big plans for its future, but given how closely GTA Online (and its roleplaying community in particular) is associated with PC gaming, I wonder if those plans will be withheld until the studio is ready to talk about the PC version of GTA 6 itself.
There are also rumblings about user generated content being a focus, and but I'm unsure if that will have anything to do with the singeplayer game—we'll see!
