5 Alternative Games Similar to GTA V WorldPlay

The Grand Theft Auto (GTA) series is one of the most successful series by Rockstar Games. The latest GTA V was no different.
This latest installment brought an even bigger open world map with three different characters to play in the story.
As usual, the game has plenty of weapons and vehicles to choose from, and quests to do.
If you finished the game, Or for some reason you pc or laptop doesn't support GTA V then here are other games like GTA V that you can play today.
 

1. Sleeping Dogs :

Sleeping Dogs is one of the only games that you can actually feel a big resemblance to GTA V, in terms of weapons, open world, cars and fighting. However, this game is set in Hong Kong, and they have a lot of Cantonese dialogues. Think GTA V gangsters but the Chinese version of it.
This game also has a lot of sweet fighting moves, which are much better than GTA’s. They focus more on melee rather than the gunfights like in GTA V. Your character fights like a young Bruce Lee and the profanity is real in this game. The quests and scenes are also really interesting and fun to play.
The only downside is that you can’t find a sequel to this game and it ends pretty quickly.

2. Saints Row: The Third :

 

 Platforms: PC, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360

Saints Row started as a pale imitation of GTA, desperately aping Rockstar's designs. The result was a lackluster effort that garnered a cult following for two games, but failed to stand apart. That all changed with Saints Row: The Third, which looked at how grim and serious GTA games were getting. This is a game where your gang is so famous and beloved that the opening mission has you robbing a bank dressed in novelty costumes of... yourselves. There's a small-scale zombie apocalypse, player choices that actually matte. Lots of GTA-likes get bogged down in being self-serious, while Saints Row is content to just be as silly as it possibly can be. True it's a bit of an older game, but it's backwards compatible on Xbox One, and with a Nintendo Switch port due in 2019, you'll have an excellent excuse to revisit the Saints soon.

3. Just Cause 3 :

 

Just Cause 3 is like GTA except that you’re going after a dictator, rather than being just a street thug. The story is that Medici suffers under the control of a General with a greed for power.
Your character is Rico and your mission is to get rid of the General’s control over Medici by whatever means necessary. The game has a huge open world map, allowing you to explore over 400 square miles in-game.
You have a lot of freedom in the air as you can do skydiving, base jumping or even free diving. Your character has a wing suit that enables him to glide through the air, giving you a lot of flexibility in movement.
As usual, you will be having a myriad of weapon choices and the ability to hijack vehicles and so on like how GTA does it.

4. Watch Dogs 2 :

 

Company: Ubisoft , System: Mac, PC

Watch Dogs 2 is known as the harder version of GTA V, at least for myself. You play as a hacker who can get through all sorts of electronic devices and your quests mainly rely on your skills as one.

The story is that you join a group of hackers to execute one of the biggest hacks in history, to take down an operating system currently used by criminals. So you’re not exactly the bad guy.
If you love GTA, but with the ability to hack through electronic devices such as drones, traffic lights and RC cars, do give this game a try. Who knows? You may love it.

5. Mafia 3:

 

Mafia 3 as the name suggests is related to Italian mafias and you play as Lincoln Clay. His family was wiped out by the mafia so this game is all about taking revenge through whatever means necessary.
You can use different methods to kill your enemies, either from direct guns blazing or by using stealth methods. Your character even has military training.
Additionally, you can build a new empire of criminals by deciding which of your men you reward and which to cast aside. It’s definitely a game filled with violence and corruption.
