GTA III changed the game forever. Released in 2001, it was the first GTA to have a fully open 3D world. GTA III is set in Liberty City, a gritty, crime-ridden city inspired by New York. It lets you explore, cause chaos, and follow a great story.
The main character, Claude, is a silent protagonist who gets betrayed and left for dead. He's out for revenge, doing jobs for different criminals as he works his way to the top. Claude's story is full of twists and turns and is one of the best in the GTA series.
Liberty City is alive and has a huge open world to explore. From dark alleys to busy streets, the city is buzzing. If you are driving through the town, doing missions, or causing chaos, there's always something to do. The game has a mix of main story missions and side activities to keep things fresh.
GTA III featured visuals that were innovative for its time. It was the first game with a fully 3D city. It had detailed environments and a day-night cycle. The game's music and radio stations also set the tone with a mix of different genres to match the city.
