GTA games in order – every Grand Theft Auto title listed by release and chronology

GRAND Theft Auto spans more than two decades – dating all the way back to 1997.

But how many GTA games have there been, what’s the correct release order, how do they fit chronologically – and are we overdue GTA 6?

GTA 6 might be just around the corner

It’s fair to say that GTA games are now taking longer to produce.

GTA III and GTA Vice City were split by just a year, and San Andreas came out two years later.

By contrast, GTA V came out five years after GTA IV.

And now we’re in 2023, still waiting for GTA 6 10 years on.

There’s no exact word on when GTA 6 will arrive, but fans are hopeful for a 2024 launch.

In any case, there are lots of ways to order Grand Theft Auto games, so here are some of the key lists you need.
