Rockstar Games, the makers of Grand Theft Auto have released three new video trailers ahead of the forthcoming release of the latest version of the gangland adventure game.
The three central characters of Grand Theft Auto 5 – due out in September – are a wealthy ex-convict, a maniac drug dealer and a kid who wants to escape from his gang-ridden neighborhood.
Grand Theft Auto 5 will be set in the urban sprawl of Los Santos, structured around a series of narrative missions, taking in eight major heists.
The three main characters are:
- Michael a retired career criminal, living in the exclusive Rockford Hills area of Los Santos, bored of his new life, fed up of his family and yearning for the excitement of his old existence.
- Franklin, the youngest member of the trio, a black kid trapped by gangland violence in a dead-end part of town. Franklin’s ‘escape route’ is a job working repo for a bunch of Eastern Europeans dealing luxury cars.
- Trevor, a drug dealing red neck who is also ex-military and a capable pilot. Mostly we see him here pretty much punching his way through Sandy Shores, the outlying trailer park he frequents with a cast of misfits and meth addicts.
The new game is hitting PS3 and Xbox 360 on 17 September.
