It's been nearly a decade since Rockstar's longawaited GRAND THEFT AUTO V. How has the game changed over the years, and how, in its present state, does GTAV compare to prior entries? Let's find out, Boss!

*****


"Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) takes the franchise back to the city of Los Santos previously seen in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Unlike prior games in the series which focus on telling the story of a single player controlled character, GTA V features three central characters that the player is able to actively switch between at nearly any time during gameplay.

Rockstar Games states that this will be their largest open world game to date, boasting a total area greater than those of GTA: San Andreas, GTA IV, and Red Dead Redemption combined. At a preview event in Spring 2013, reps said that the map in GTA V will be "five times bigger than Red Dead Redemption".

A first for the franchise, players aren't restricted from certain areas in the game and can now explore the entire environment at their leisure.

At E3 2014, it was announced that Grand Theft Auto V would be coming to the PlayStation 4, the Xbox One, and the PC. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions were released on November 18, 2014 with the PC version releasing on April 14 2015 after numerous delays."
