Launch of Netflix in video games
In 2021, Netflix has taken its first steps into the world of video games. Originally, there was a catalog with a few mobile games and, as a flagship product, adaptations of Stranger Things. Since 2023, you can enjoy more famous franchises on Netflix. We can cite Football Manager 2024, Farming Simulator 23 and the remaster of the GTA trilogy : namely GTA III, GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas. A paid addition for the Californian company: according to Appmagic data compiled by mobilegamer.biz, more than 30 million cumulative downloads for the trilogy.
A success for the partnership between Netflix and Rockstar?
A fairly astonishing number of downloads for Rockstar's remastered saga which, upon release, did not necessarily please the player. The new graphics were considered too “cartoon” by players. This style would have caused certain characters to lose their character and even their charisma. A problem which, judging by downloads, is not of much importance to Netflix subscribers.

The endless wait for GTA VI
The release date for Rockstar's next big baby is still scheduled for fall 2025.
As a reminder, through GTA VI, we will follow the adventures of two characters, Lucia and Jason, in the fictional state of Leonida inspired by Florida. To deduce from the statistics in the trailer, the long-awaited game is generating monumental hype among players.
But don't worry, just wait, Rockstar does not abandon us by continuing to bring us content around GTA V with the Primes font update. Enough to show us that, in addition to this renewed interest in old episodes on Netflix, Rockstar is doing everything to never leave the news.
