Grand Theft Auto V (usually called GTA V for short) is an open-world computer game that was developed by the Scottish studio Rockstar North. It was launched worldwide by Rockstar Games for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on September 17, 2013. It is the eleventh part of the video game series Grand Theft Auto (GTA) and the fifth “main part”. GTA V takes place in the fictional city of Los Santos, which Los Angeles quotes and parodies. Los Santos is located in the fictional state of San Andreas, which resembles southern California and was previously the location of the fifth Grand Theft Auto game, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. For the first time in the history of the series, the player controls three different protagonists.

GTA V broke several records in video game history: it achieved sales of more than a billion US dollars in just three days, outbid Call of Duty: Black Ops II, which only brought in about half in that time ] A total of more than 45 million copies were sold by February 2015 and 75 million by February 2017. So far, over 1.5 million copies have been sold in Germany.

About two weeks after the launch, Rockstar Games activated the multiplayer component Grand Theft Auto Online with an update, in which up to 16 players can play together. With the version for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, this limit was extended to 30. In the first few weeks, Grand Theft Auto Online was hardly playable due to server problems, which is why all players received play money as compensation after the fix.
