If you want to experience Grand Theft Auto (GTA) games but don't have a console or PC, you can play some of the classic GTA games right on your mobile devices. Here is a rundown of some of the best GTA games that you can play on Android and iOS.
GTA Games to Play on Mobile in 2024
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - Definitive Edition
This is the most recent and arguably the best GTA game on mobile. It's a remastered version of the classic PS2 game, with updated graphics and controls. It's a massive open-world game with tons of content to explore, and it faithfully captures the over-the-top humor and action of the original.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Another classic GTA game that's been remastered for mobile. Vice City is set in a neon-soaked 1980s Miami, and it has a killer soundtrack to match. The story is just as good as San Andreas, and the gameplay is just as fun.
Grand Theft Auto III
The game that started it all on mobile, Grand Theft Auto III is still a great experience. It's not as graphically impressive as the newer games, but it's still a lot of fun to drive around Liberty City and cause chaos.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
This is a unique entry in the GTA series, as it's played from a top-down perspective. It's also set in a smaller, more focused world than the other games, but it's still packed with story and action.
Will GTA 6 Be on Mobile?
GTA 6 is expected to be a very demanding game, and it is unclear whether mobile devices will be powerful enough to run it smoothly. The game will likely require a lot of processing power and graphics capabilities, which may not be available on most smartphones.
Rockstar Games typically targets GTA games towards older audiences due to the mature content. This may make it less appealing to mobile game developers, who often focus on games that are more suitable for younger audiences. While GTA 6 might be on mobile devices via streaming services or be remastered countless years into the future for phones, you shouldn't hold your breath for the game's release on mobile platforms at launch.
