Nobody looks forward to getting onto the Los Angeles freeways system – until now. Rockstar Games brings the City of Angels to life and lets you go from Santa Monica to Downtownand up into the Hollywood Hills with recognizable landmarks and the best driving L.A. has to offer. Navigate the streets, freeways and back roads with the GPS map that shows the layout of the city and various races available. Jump into free-form open-world racing or take on jobs and missions to earn cash and respect points to unlock new rides, or improve the appearance and performance of your current vehicle. Damage can be instantly repaired with salvage-yard parts, but you'll need to head to the body shop to restore the look of your ride.
Whether a rusty 1983 VW Golf GTI, a classic '69 Ford Mustang Boss 302 or an exotic Audi R8, each of the nearly 50 cars and bikes has a distinctive handling style. A day-night cycle with variable traffic patterns and dynamic weather where rain can make a normally tame street suddenly treacherous ensure plenty of challenges to your skills – and maybe even your bodywork. Go head-to-head in up to 16-person multiplayer races including Capture-the-Flag, Stockpile and open city checkpoint events. Build your own event to challenge others, or just cruise the streets looking for action.
