How long did GTA 5 take to make?
GTA 5 was a massive project for Rockstar Games. It took them around 5 years to develop from initial concept to the full release in September 2013. The level of detail in the game, from its vast open world to character development, meant a ton of work was involved. So yeah, 5 whole years to bring Los Santos to our screens!

5 years? Honestly, it was worth every second. The world, the details, the story... chef's kiss!
Took them 5 years. Seems a lot, but for a game that still feels fresh and is played by millions, I'd say time well spent.
Only 5 years to create the masterpiece that is GTA 5. To think they built that entire massive world in the same time it takes to get a college degree is just mind-blowing.
