Evolution of GTA Characters from Past to Present

Grand Theft Auto games are the games we played in our childhood and some of us continues to play It consists of a large collection. Some are Vice City, some are San Andreas. No matter what game of the series we like, the question we ask the most, even when buying a computer: Does it uninstall GTA 5?

The GTA series is generally gathered under two different main titles: main and side series. Most of the games we all know and love are in the main series and contain many characters. Today, dating back to GTA 6 we take a journey and examine the characters that caught our attention the most in the main series of GTA.

Grand Theft Auto, the first game of the legendary series, offered us the opportunity to play with different characters before 5. (1997)

In Grand Theft Auto, which we play at the top angle, we can play 3 different cities and 8 different main characters there is. We are sure that the names of these cities will sound very familiar to all of you. Vice City, San Adreas and Liberty City, which we saw in the next games of the series, are the cities we saw in the first game of GTA.

The names of our characters that you have seen above and that can be considered successful according to that period are; Travis, Mikki, Katie, Divine, Bubba, Troy, Ulrika and Kivlov. In a way that we are not used to in GTA games, we can play by choosing one of these characters in the first game. of course from a bird’s eye view Because we’re playing, we can’t see most of these characters.

Our main characters are not 1, but 8 of them.

Our non-player NPC characters are also diverse.

The first game where our star level rose while escaping the police: Grand Theft Auto 2! (1999)

Our main character, Claude Speed, may sound familiar to you from somewhere. Claude with his style, posture and face type He is very similar to Tommy Vercetti, one of the most loved characters we will see in the later games of the series.

In this game, we play the characters almost without seeing them, as Rockstar Games does not give up from a bird’s eye view. However, with this game, perhaps one of the most important details that makes GTA GTA is added to the series: with star system display.

The main character of GTA 2: Claude Speed!

Images of non-player (NPC) characters are unfortunately only available for Game Boy.

Unfortunately, because GTA 2 is played from a bird’s eye view and has not reached many players, there are not many images of the characters in the game.

The first game where GTA became GTA… (2001)

What we see in two main games in a row in the GTA series single character As Claude, he goes down in history with this game. Because this is not the only detail that writes his name in history. With GTA 3, Rockstar Games gives players more freedom of movement and bird’s eye view is replaced by three-dimensional graphics.

Also the series first ‘voice’ game The name El Burro, which we encountered in the first game of GTA 3, appears again. Of course, El Burro in the first game and the character in this game are not the same person. However, it is an undeniable fact that they are quite similar to each other in terms of both type and character.

The character we played in 3D for the first time is again Claude.

Let’s take a closer look at our NPCs.
