In this thread you can find all the confirmed information about GTA V. All of the information is currently from Game Informer. If you think something should be changed or added please let me know, and please provide a source. I will add it to the OP and give you credit ;)

Map/Locations/Pedestrian Interaction

  • Biggest Map in the History of Rockstar
  • Location: Rockford Hills, Similar to Beverly Hills
  • Location: Blaine County: Desert fulled of Bikers, Meth heads, and other of those sorts
  • Location: Vespucci Beach, Similar to Vennice beach
  • The map is bigger than the worlds of Red Dead, San Andreas, And GTA IV... Combined! With even more room to spare
  • This huge maps includes Beach fronts, wine country, a large wilderness (The surrounds Mt. Chiliad, which is fully explorable), a Salton Sea region, a military base, Suburban hills, and obviously the center of it all, the City.
  • You can also grab Scuba equipment and explore the bottom of the ocean!
  • As most know, we are returning to Los Santos, with some changes, one major change is a big country side outside the city
  • When flying you can miles in game, really capturing the land
  • Detail is incredible, even high detail in shelves in stores
  • Less walking peds on the street
  • But more peds doing human like things, such as hanging out
  • Really trying to replicate a realistic LA feel
  • Walking down the street you can casually meet people and talk
  • The gun store Ammu-Nation is back

Game-play/Story


  • 3 Main characters, and you can switch between them at any time
  • They say driving has really improved. They added for physics to the cars, and it almost feels like a racing game.
  • Shooting has changed a lot from previous games
  • The improved the hand combat system, making it more powerful and fun
  • When switching characters (In one case done by making a call) you zoom out then zoom back in, having a Google earth-like feeling
  • The story line continues with the character even if not playing as them, meaning they can get into all sort of trouble while playing as another character (Sounds a little like the Sims)
  • You learn about other characters as playing as the others, meaning playing as Michael you may learn something about Trevor, but Trevor may not even know. Leaving room for plenty of irony
  • The main missions of the game will be about Heist's
  • Some missions you use all 3 character and have them work together
  • With the ability of switching characters you can skip the boring parts of the missions like driving and things like that

Vehicles/Transportation

  • New truck named the Bodhi, similar to a Jeep Wrangler
  • New Car: 9F, similar to a Audi R8
  • The player can controller the roof if a car is a convertible
  • Confirmed vehicles so far: BMX bike, Mountain Bikes, Road bikes, dirt bikes, huge collection of cars and trucks, helicopters, planes, ATV's, and Jetski's
  • Rappelling is now in the game
  • Parachuting is back

Activities/Mini-Games/Side-missions

  • On the waterfront there is activities such as a Gym, or attending a sermon
  • Some activities: Bowling, Strip clubs, Stand up comedy,TV shows and Internet cafes
  • Also there is a lot more side missions and mini-games
  • As stated early there is television, and some shows from IV is coming back
  • Some outdoorsy activities are Yoga, Triathlons, Base Jumping, Tennis, Jet Skiing , and even a full out Golf Game
  • Side missions similar to Red Dead, Ie. being able to talk to hitchhikers and investigate mysterious objects
  • No more annoying "Romances"
  • Characters will have skills only they can do, meaning some unique side missions

Other/Misc.


  • Customization on the characters is toned down from San Andreas, but it will be similar to IV
  • Some re-appearances from other GTA characters, but not main characters
  • New economy, no properties but a lot of other things to spend your money on
  • Phone will be coming back, but no more constant calls
  • The phone is a iFruit (Ripped off iPhone and apple?) and you an access the internet
  • Not releasing any multi-player info except for them saying that it is is really fun and a cool open world experience

i just wanna say i called it! way back when this section wasnt even made yet i had a post and i put that micheal was the main character.

I was 1/3 right! nice post though. The character switching thing seems kinda dumb to me. They should have just done like 3 different campaigns not 3 in the same campaign.
