Released back in 2013, Grand Theft Auto V received critical acclaim across the board for its incredible storytelling, gameplay mechanics and detailed open world, among other things. Since then, fans of the game have had plenty to keep them busy, including numerous easter eggs like the wild hunt for Big Foot, a very sad dog, and much more.
Grand Theft Auto V also garnered quite a large community of roleplayers, becoming a huge phenomenon on Twitch. It even reached Australia where a small but dedicated group of players roleplay as police, complete with NSW Police skins modded into the game. This caught the attention of the Police Commissioner seven years later.
The wider Grand Theft Auto V community is a fun one to get involved in. Outside of roleplaying, the general hijinks of running amok in an enormous open world can lead to things like trying to blow up an indestructible dam and scouring for cut or hidden content.
For those new to Grand Theft Auto V, it offers the same kind of ‘do whatever the hell you want’ seasoning that its predecessors were praised for. Simply cruising around Los Santos and getting up to your own brand of mischief is just as fun as hanging out of a helicopter with a sniper rifle during a set mission. On top of that, there are a tonne of side missions and activities from golf to tennis to bowling and more to keep you occupied.
Even if you do manage to get tired of all that, there’s the option to get your mates involved with GTA Online, which is packed with even more missions, heists and multiplayer modes. In other words, it’s nigh on impossible to get bored in the world of Grand Theft Auto V.
Despite being a seven-year-old game, its visuals still hold up tremendously well and can even be enhanced further with a number of third-party graphics packs.
If you’re keen to wreak some havoc of your own in Los Santos, be sure to log in to the Epic Games Store before May 21 to claim your copy of Grand Theft Auto V. It’s free on PC and once it’s in your library, it’s yours to keep forever.
