Another interesting fact about GTA: San Andreas has become known
The game recently celebrated its 20th anniversary.
Former Rockstar North technical director Obbe Vermeij continues to share details about the studio's game production process. In honor of the 20th anniversary of the release of GTA: San Andreas, the author revealed a little-known fact about the creation of the project. We are talking about the city map: initially, the game was supposed to have three separate maps, since the technical capabilities of the PlayStation 2 console were not enough for a single map. The division of the map into three parts was present in GTA and GTA 2. Movement between the three separate parts of the map was supposed to be carried out by trains and planes.
The division was intended to simplify the management of transport and weather conditions. In addition, players could be kept from visiting other locations ahead of time according to the plot. However, after a meeting of technical specialists, it was decided to make a single map despite the limitations of the PS2 console.
GTA: San Andreas was released on October 26, 2024.
