Grand Theft Auto III (2001)
Leaping into 3D, GTA III brought a fully realized Liberty City to life. This version of Liberty City felt much larger due to its three-dimensional landscape and was divided into three main areas: Portland, Staunton Island, and Shoreside Vale. It offered an immersive urban experience that redefined open-world gaming.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002)
With GTA Vice City, players explored the vibrant, neon-lit streets of the '80s-themed metropolis. Modeled after Miami, the game's version of Vice City was larger than Liberty City in GTA III and featured two major islands filled with detailed neighborhoods reflecting the era's culture.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004)
San Andreas was a leap forward, featuring an immense map that included three cities: Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas, alongside vast expanses of countryside and desert. The scale and variety of the terrain set a new benchmark for the series and gaming as a whole.
Grand Theft Auto IV (2008)
Returning to a more realistic and denser Liberty City, GTA IV's map was smaller than San Andreas's sprawling landscape but prided itself on unprecedented detail and a living city atmosphere. With four main boroughs and a central business district, the depth of the urban environment was unparalleled at its release.
Grand Theft Auto V (2013)
GTA V pushed boundaries again with its version of San Andreas, focusing heavily on Los Santos and its surrounding natural environments. Rockstar managed to create a game world that was not only huge by series standards but also breathtakingly detailed, from the bustling city center to the stunning Mount Chiliad.
How Big Will Grand Theft Auto VI Map Be?
According to the infamous Rockstar Games leak that recently occurred, the upcoming Grand Theft Auto game (GTA VI) will have a mind-blowing 50 times bigger game map than one in GTA V. If you ever played GTA V, you know how much time it took you to explore the entire map. Now try to imagine a 50 times bigger map, and you'll realize how much work Rockstar Games has put into the newest GTA title.
Grand Theft Auto games feature a variety of maps that vary in size. The largest map in the series so far, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online offer players a vast open-world environment filled with plenty of landmarks and points of interest.
In contrast, the maps in earlier GTA games, such as GTA III and GTA Vice City, are much smaller than they are in GTA IV. Regardless of their size, all the maps are meticulously detailed and offer a unique and immersive gaming experience.
