Which GTA Games Are Available On Android?

GTA or Grand Theft Auto is a long-running game franchise that has been around for more than 20 years now. There have been 7 mainline titles and 4 handheld titles released... however, not all of them are available to play on Android.

In this article, we would list out all the GTA games that you can actually download and play on Android and rank them based on how good they are.

5 - GTA Liberty City Stories

GTA Liberty City Stories is a handheld prequel to GTA III, which uses the same "Liberty City" (New York) as the main location. The story follows the footsteps of mobster Antonio "Toni" Cipriani, Don Salvatore Leone (of GTA III)'s second in command, and his journey to make the Leone family the most powerful crime organization in the city.

The gameplay of Liberty City Stories is the usual GTA formula of action-adventure in an open world environment.

4 - GTA Chinatown Wars

This is actually the newest GTA game on this list. Chinatown Wars starts much differently than any other games in the franchise, with you being part of the Triad (Chinese American mafia) instead of just the usual crime syndicate.

The story of Chinatown Wars is just the usual GTA tale of betrayal and revenge, with the protagonist getting wronged by his former allies and left for dead. The gameplay part of Chinatown Wars is actually much better than you would have expected, with the game designed for handheld/touch devices by default instead of having to rely on clunky controls.

3 - GTA III

GTA III is probably the most important entry in the whole series - it is the beginning of the "modern" era and the first one with a 3D environment. In this game, players would step into the shoes of Claude, yet another backstabbed criminal out for revenge. He would tangle with the previously mentioned Don Salvatore Leone, assassinate him and become the top dog in the city's criminal underworld.

While GTA III is better than the previous game story-wise, its gameplay is not nearly as good with clunky controls and lack of designed mechanics.

2 - GTA Vice City

The fourth main entry of the series and probably the most famous one. In GTA Vice City, you would play as the criminal Tommy Vercetti whose dream is to become the top boss of the city. The best part of this game is probably the settings - Vice City is based on Miami in the 80s, a city filled with neon lights and vices.

Gameplay-wise, it is a step up from GTA III, with a lot of new mechanics getting added.

1 - GTA San Andreas

The seventh titles in the GTA series and probably the most famous one. San Andreas is the last main title of the "3D era" of GTA and is probably the most nostalgic title that gamers of that era have played. GTA San Andreas' story is a little bit different than other GTA games, with the protagonist CJ coming back to the city after a journey instead of the usual "revenge" schtick.

Upon seeing the sorry state of his family and friends, CJ decided to stay in Los Santos and work with the family to pick them up again. This is probably the best game in the 3D era, with the most robust mechanics, quests and stories.
