A Brief History of Racing in the GTA Series

Racing has been woven into Grand Theft Auto since the very beginning. The early top-down games had frantic getaways; GTA III and beyond added proper street races; and GTA 5 turned racing into a genuine competitive pillar with GTA Online.

With GTA 6 on the way, the next chapter is almost here. Raycin’s job is to keep the racing tradition alive — fair, fast and community-run — across every generation of GTA.
