Online play Grand Autoft online play allows up to 30 players to participate in various competitive and game play modes.

The development of the game started shortly after the release of Grand Theft Auto IV and has been shared by many Rockstar studios around the world.

Most of the development work is creating an open world, and several team members are doing field research in California to take photos for the design team.
