GTA 5 (Also known as: GTA V / Grand Theft Auto V / Grand Theft Auto Five) is the fifth numbered game in the Grand Theft Auto series from developer Rockstar Games. The game is the fifteenth overall title in the iconic Grand Theft Auto franchise. GTA 5 was released on both PS3 and Xbox 360 on September 17, 2013. The game follows 3 main protagonists as they carry out various missions.
GTA Online, the multiplayer section of GTA 5, launched on October 1, 2013. Widespread connection issues continue to plague the game.
GTA 5 Map
The setting of Grand Theft Auto 5 is Los Santos and surrounding areas of San Andreas, the Los Angeles-inspired region where GTA: San Andreas was set. The map of San Andreas has been converted into an island and features a vastly different layout than GTA: San Andreas. The GTA 5 map is approximately 100 square miles (13x7). Los Santos is about 21 square miles, twice the size of the Midnight Club Los Angeles Map.
The GTA 5 Interactive Map is a Google-style map anyone can edit or add to. It includes Collectibles, Stunt Jumps and much, much more. It also works on phones and tablets!
GTA 5 Characters
There are three main Characters in GTA 5: Michael, Trevor, and Franklin. These three characters are criminals from different backgrounds that are forced to work together in a series of heists and other stunts in GTA 5.
Other GTA 5 Features
Like previous Grand Theft Auto games, but not GTA 4, button-based Cheat Codes appear in GTA 5.
Grand Theft Auto Online, a vast multiplayer component, was launched two weeks after GTA 5's initial release, on October 1st.
A companion app called iFruit was released alongside GTA 5 for iOS, with android device's getting the app at a later date, which allows players to customize their vehicles and license plates while away from the game.
