More than a thousand people developed Grand Theft Auto V, an action-adventure video

game. Rockstar Games released the game on 17 September 2013 for PlayStation 3 and
Xbox 360, on 18 November 2014 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and on 14 April 2015
for Microsoft Windows, as the fifteenth entry in the Grand Theft Auto series.
Development began soon after Grand Theft Auto IV's release and was led by Rockstar
North's core 360-person team, who considered the game a spiritual successor to many
of their previous projects like Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3. Its release
date, though subject to several delays, was widely anticipated. Much of the
development time was spent creating the game's open world, modelled on Southern
California and Los Angeles. For the first time in the series, players control three
protagonists throughout the single-player mode; the team found that these changes
altered the gameplay and narrative devices. The game features an original score,
composed over several years by a team of five music producers. Its re-release added
a first-person view option along with the traditional third-person view. (Full
