Grand Theft Auto V is a 2013 adventure game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. This is the first major entry in the Grand Theft Auto series in the 2008 Grand Theft Auto IV. Located in the fictional state of San Andreas, based in Southern California, the story of a player follows three criminals and their efforts to commit crimes under pressure from authorities and powerful criminals. The open world design allows players to hike San Andreas and the fictional Los Angeles-based city of Los Santos.

The game is played either from a third party or first person perspective, and its universe is oriented on foot or in transport. Players control the three main characters under a player and switch between them, both during and off missions. The story focuses on successive activities, and many missions are about shooting and controlling the game. The “search” system regulates the aggression of law enforcement agencies that respond to players who have committed crimes. Grand Theft Auto Online, an online multiplayer mode, allows up to 30 players to participate in a variety of collaborative and competitive game modes.

Development for the game began shortly after the launch of Grand Theft Auto IV and has been shared between many Rockstar Studios around the world. The development team has influenced many of their previous projects, such as Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3, and has developed a game around the three main characters to renew the basic structure of their predecessors. Much of the development work was unlimited, and several team members conducted field surveys in California to shoot for the design team. The game’s soundtrack contains an original score composed by a team of producers who have collaborated for several years. It was released in September 2013 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, in November 2014 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and in April 2015 for Microsoft Windows.

The game was widely sold and highly anticipated, breaking the industry’s sales record and becoming the fastest growing entertainment product in history, earning $ 800 million in the first day and $ 1 billion in the first three days. It has received praise for its several main characters, design, open world, presentation and games. However, this has led to controversy over its portrayal of violence and women. Considered one of the most significant names in the seventh and eighth generation of console games and among the best video games ever made, several editions of games were honored at the end of the year, including this year’s games of the year. It is the second best-selling video game of all time with more than 120 million copies and one of the most economically successful entertainment products of all time, with approximately $ 6 billion worldwide.
