GTA 6 is Coming, But Which is the Best Game in the Series So Far?

After a long wait, we finally know for sure what GTA 6 looks like, as well as when it will launch, due to a recent official trailer from Rockstar Games itself. There’s a lot more information to find out, that’s true, but it’s still joyful that we finally have some official info about the highly-anticipated title. The trailer has been viewed a record number of times in just a few days after its launch.

The sad aspect is that GTA 6 will be a console-exclusive game, at least for its first months. Later on, we can expect that the game will be adapted for PC as well, in a similar way as it happened with GTA 5, the previous game of the legendary series.

It’s time to try to find out which is the best GTA game so far. Although we can realistically expect that GTA 6 will be the best, it’s time to consider only the titles that have already been released:

GTA 5

GTA 5, the game that came out in 2013, is easily one of the best games of the Grand Theft Auto series, if not the best of all time. This game has pretty much everything you need if you’re a fan of open-world and RPG games. You can take on a lot of dangerous missions, use your weapons to give everyone a hard time, steal cars, and a lot more. The possibilities are just endless in this game.

GTA 5 is also known for its online multiplayer mode, which is commonly known as GTA Online. Despite being over a decade old, GTA 5 has aged like good wine, as it’s being played even today by numerous gamers.

GTA San Andreas

GTA San Andreas has its 20th anniversary this year, and it’s one of the best games of all time if we just consider the gameplay itself. This game is highly-immersive even today if you are not bothered by the obsolete graphics, as you can get CJ (aka Carl Johnson, the protagonist) in pretty much any role you want: doctor, taxi driver, cop, burglar, pimp, and so on.

There’s no wonder why many folks consider GTA San Andreas the best game of the Grand Theft Auto series. This game has everything, and as a player, you get to do a lot of fun stuff even after you finish the story mode, as you can be regularly involved in gang wars to defend your territories,  get your hands on numerous collectibles, and so on.

GTA Vice City

GTA 3 was a legend, as it was the first game of the Grand Theft Auto series that made the shift to a 3D environment. But it was GTA Vice City, a game that came out in 2002, that brought the whole thing to a different level. Vice City has some impressive graphics for its time, and it was set in Miami, the same location that the upcoming GTA 6 will embrace. GTA Vice City also impressed due to its gameplay and entertaining missions, as the game rapidly became one of the most influential ones in the history of gaming.

Let’s face it: no gamer in his 30s hasn’t been using cheat codes in GTA Vice City at least once in order to wreak havoc on the streets of fictional Miami.

GTA IV

GTA 4 was a revolutionary game for its time. This game, which came out in 2008, brought the graphics to an unprecedented level for the Grand Theft Auto series. Niko Bellic, the protagonist, is a veteran of the Yugoslavian War who came to the US to have a better life. However, he rapidly became entangled in a dangerous game from which he needed to be slick and deadly enough to escape. The gameplay of GTA 4 was also at a whole new level, as it introduced new realistic mechanics.

It’s pretty much impossible to say which one of these games is the best GTA title, but probably GTA 5 fits in that role the best.
