Recently, tech enthusiasts presented a new way to play Grand Theft Auto V. A browser-based version of the Rockstar Games hit appeared – everyone could play it, no download required.
The creators of this version of Grand Theft Auto V did not disclose technical details of the project's implementation. After the first publications, the “browser-based GTA V” quickly went viral on social media, and it seems that Take-Two lawyers noticed what was happening. Players believe that the copyright holder demanded the project be shut down.
Now, if you try to go to the original link to the “browser-based GTA V” website, nothing loads. However, enthusiasts found a way to bypass the restriction: it turned out that Grand Theft Auto V can still be launched in a browser via the Internet Archive.
The release of the new installment of the Grand Theft Auto VI franchise is scheduled for November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles. The developers have not yet said anything about a PC version, so some players are hoping for tech enthusiasts who might come up with something with emulators.
