GTA 3 is an open-world action game about Claude, a silent criminal who escapes custody in Liberty City and starts working for different gangs. The game has a full story campaign, but it also allows the player to move around the city between missions. The plot begins after Claude is betrayed by Catalina during a bank robbery. After escaping a prison transfer, he enters the criminal world of Liberty City and takes jobs from different groups.

A City Built Around Crime

The main objective in GTA 3 is to complete story missions and move through the criminal network of Liberty City. Claude works for several people and organizations, including the Leone Mafia, the Yakuza, and other criminal figures. The story is told through mission scenes, phone calls, and character interactions. There is no dialogue from Claude himself, so the player follows the plot through the actions and reactions of other characters.

Missions, Districts, and Side Activities

GTA 3 is structured around missions rather than traditional levels. Each mission has a set objective, such as driving to a location, delivering a vehicle, attacking enemies, escaping police, or helping a criminal contact. The city is divided into areas, including Portland, Staunton Island, and Shoreside Vale, which become available as the story progresses.

Main gameplay elements include:

  •         story missions with fixed objectives;
  •         an open city with roads, buildings, and districts;
  •         cars, trucks, boats, and other vehicles;
  •         weapons, police chases, and wanted levels;
  •         side activities outside the main story;
  •         exploration between missions.

How the Player Moves Through Liberty City

The gameplay combines driving, shooting, exploration, and mission completion. The player can steal vehicles, drive through the city, fight enemies, and use the map to reach mission markers. Outside missions, the player can explore Liberty City, find hidden items, cause police attention, or start side activities. Rockstar describes the game as bringing Liberty City to life with a large open world and many types of characters and locations.

To play GTA 3, the player chooses available mission markers, follows the objective, and uses vehicles or weapons when needed. Driving is important because many missions involve reaching places quickly or escaping enemies. Combat usually requires aiming, taking cover through movement, and managing health, armor, and ammunition. GTA 3 is mainly about moving through an open city, completing criminal jobs, and progressing through Claude’s story in Liberty City.
