Grand Theft Auto V

14 stories
Designed as an open-world action-adventure game, Grand Theft Auto V emphasises multi-stage heists, open-world driving and third-person firearm combat, so the main loop depends on more than direct aggression. The story follows Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton in Los Santos, with Lamar Davis providing support and Devin Weston and Steve Haines forming the main opposition.
Additional structure comes from cover system, wanted level system and vehicle customisation. For Grand Theft Auto V, coverage can address preservation, control design, mission structure and difficulty, using multi-stage heists as a reference point.
