History of GTA game series
The Grand Theft Auto (GTA) series has come a long way since its inception in 1997, when the first game in the series was released by DMA Design, now known as Rockstar North. This action-adventure, open-world video game series has achieved remarkable success over the years, thanks to its immersive gameplay, unique storytelling, and extensive game maps that allow players to explore and interact with various cities. In the early days, the GTA games featured a top-down perspective, beginning with the original Grand Theft Auto, which was set in three fictional cities: Liberty City, San Andreas, and Vice City. As the series progressed, the graphics and gameplay evolved, transitioning from 2D to 3D with the release of Grand Theft Auto III in 2001. This groundbreaking title introduced players to a fully 3D open-world environment and set the standard for future games in the series.
Following the success of GTA III, the series expanded, with each new installment offering larger maps, more detailed environments, and deeper storylines. In 2002, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was released, transporting players to a vibrant, neon-drenched interpretation of 1980s Miami. This was followed by Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in 2004, which boasted an expansive map encompassing three major cities and numerous smaller towns, offering a diverse range of environments for players to explore. The series then returned to Liberty City in 2008 with the critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto IV, which introduced an even more realistic open-world experience and a compelling narrative centered around the struggles of an immigrant named Niko Bellic. The latest main installment, Grand Theft Auto V, launched in 2013 and became one of the best-selling games of all time, selling over 175 million copies. Set in the sprawling city of Los Santos, GTA V features three distinct protagonists and an engaging storyline, showcasing the series’ continued commitment to innovation and immersive storytelling.
