Grand Theft Auto V (2013)
Can one more heist buy a fresh start?
Michael wants to protect a life bought with his past. Franklin is looking for a way out of familiar cycles. Trevor draws them into a Los Santos where money, family and trust all have a price. This profile covers GTA V Story Mode, first released in 2013.
