GTA 5 for PS4, XB1, PC

On June 9, 2014, Sony announced that GTA 5 will be coming to Next-gen consoles in the Fall of 2014. Early footage reveals improved graphics but, more surprisingly, Rockstar promised GTA 5 players will be able to import their GTA Online progress from both PS3 and Xbox 360 saves.

Soon after, the Rockstar Newswire reported that GTA 5 would also be launched on PC in early 2015.

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 on PS2 was set. The map of San Andreas has been converted into an island and features a vastly different layout than it's PS2 counterpart. The new GTA 5 map is approximately 100 square miles (13x7) with Los Santos being about 21 square miles, twice the size of the Midnight Club Los Angeles Map.

Use the GTA 5 Interactive Map

The IGN 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 (excluding 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.
