Grand Theft Auto IV, commonly shortened to GTA IV, is a 2008
action adventure video game, developed by Rockstar North and published by
Rockstar Games. It was released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on 29 April
2008, and for Microsoft Windows on 2 December 2008. It is a reboot[citation
needed of the Grand Theft Auto
series, depicting a separate timeline from its predecessors (known as the
“high-definition universe”) and is set in fictional Liberty City, based heavily
on modern day New York City. The game follows Niko Bellic, a veteran of an unnamed
war in Eastern Europe, who comes to the United States in search of the American
Dream, but quickly becomes entangled in a world of gangs, crime, and
corruption. Like other games in the series, GTA IV is composed of elements from
driving games and third person shooters, and features open world gameplay, in
which players can interact with the game world at their leisure. Grand Theft
Auto IV also features several online multiplayer modes.
Two expansion packs have been developed for the game, originally released as downloadable content for the Xbox 360 version throughout 2009. Both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony feature new plots that are interconnected with the main GTA IV storyline, and follow new protagonists. The two episodes have been released together for all platforms as a stand-alone game called Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City. A bundle that contained both the original GTA IV game and the Episodes was also released, titled Grand Theft Auto IV: The Complete Edition. The 2009 handheld game Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars revisited the Liberty City of GTA IV.
As the first game of the critically acclaimed series to appear on seventh generation consoles, Grand Theft Auto IV was widely anticipated. A major commercial and critical success, it broke industry records with sales of around 3.6 million units on its first day of release and grossing more than $500 million in revenue in the first week, selling an estimated 6 million units worldwide. As of September 2011, the game had shipped over 22 million copies. Grand Theft Auto IV won numerous awards from both gaming and mainstream press, including several recognitions as Game of the Year. As of 2012 the game has sold over 25 million copies. It is widely considered to be one of the best video games of all time and a landmark in modern gaming.
