Grand Theft Auto San Andreas

A return to Los Santos changes everything. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas follows Carl Johnson, who comes home after his mother’s death and is pulled back into the streets, his family, and the Grove Street gang. His journey expands across the fictional state of San Andreas, where rival gangs, corrupt officials, and criminal organizations shape a broad crime drama.

A living open world with many ways to play. Players explore cities, countryside, and desert on foot or by vehicle while completing missions and side activities. Character and vehicle customization, weapon handling, driving, flying, swimming, businesses, minigames, and local two-player activities give the campaign unusual breadth for its era.

PS2-to-PS3 catalogue entry. The original PS2 release is an action-adventure open-world game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. Its third-person exploration, large connected map, cinematic story, varied vehicles, progression systems, and limited split-screen activities define this landmark entry.
