Until GTA III, in-world time in GTA games remain static, with all locales in [[Grand Theft Auto 1]] and the [[Grand Theft Auto: London]] expansion packs taking place in the day, while [[Grand Theft Auto 2]] can set to be played in a perceptual night or day at the player's choosing (this applies to the [[Personal Computer|PC]] and [[Dreamcast]] versions only; the PlayStation version takes place only in the day). [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]] is the only GTA game after GTA III that follows the same arrangement, being set in a permanent day. | Until GTA III, in-world time in GTA games remain static, with all locales in [[Grand Theft Auto 1]] and the [[Grand Theft Auto: London]] expansion packs taking place in the day, while [[Grand Theft Auto 2]] can be set to be played in a perceptual night or day at the player's choosing (this applies to the [[Personal Computer|PC]] and [[Dreamcast]] versions only; the PlayStation version takes place only in the day).

In the [[GTA III Era]], time moves at a rate of one second in real time is one minute in-game, making one in-game hour a minute and one in-game day 24 real time minutes. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], time moves at a rate of two real time seconds to one in-game minute, meaning that one full day is doubled from 24 real time minutes to 48 real time minutes. Time is in 24-hour, military time in the game, (presumably done to avoid confusion) starting at 00:00 at midnight and going to 23:59 at a minute before midnight. [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] introduced days of the week to the series. | In the [[GTA III Era]], time moves at a rate of one second in real time is one minute in-game, making one in-game hour a minute and one in-game day 24 real time minutes.
