Multiplayer: Difference between revisions

A multiplayer game is a game where more than one person can play at the same time, often using computer networking to allow this. Multiplayer modes are one of the most wanted features fans of the [[Grand Theft Auto]] series would like to see included in a GTA game.

 

Some of the GTA games do have multiplayer features officially supported, but not all have them fully implemented, or have smaller variations on the theme. There have however, been numerous attempts by teams of fans who are dedicated to achieving multiplayer gameplay in GTA. Some of the modifications created by these teams have been critically acclaimed and have proved very successful.

While Rockstar did include multiplayer support with the free download release of [[GTA2]] for the PC, no modern GTA game yet has featured a true officially supported multiplayer mode whereby people from anywhere in the world can play against each other over the Internet. There have been hints that official support was going to be implemented in [[GTA3]], however nothing materialised from it. Small implementations have been made in other GTA games and are detailed below.
