Been playing this franchise since 2001's GTA 3. But no disc, no buy, no interest.

I was always gonna get it digitally. Imagine buying on disc they Sony releasing the handheld and needing to buy it again. Im actually quite shocked Rockstar didn't do this to bankroll multiple copies.

i would not be surprised if rockstars strategy is release digital and sell 10s of millions of copies then release a disc addition for double dipping, then we all know the PS6 and nextbox version upgrades are coming. this game will be around for a very long time

This is... disturbing plausible.

It’s certainly an interesting marketing strategy. You won’t be getting as many new eyes on it restricting viewing access to a subscription service

"On Netflix."

Oh, you gotta be fucking kidding me.

We're making trailers exclusive now? Is that where we are?

It's releasing on YouTube later on the same day. But it is strange to have a trailer dropping on Netflix first.

Suck to be a UK/EU viewer. Restricted to a pay wall then put on Youtube at 2/3am.

This said, Netflix paid, Rockstar are unlikely to say no to basically free money.

Because most modern developers fucking suck.

You would say no to free 100 million to just host your trailers with them for 6 hours?
