City Theft Auto
About City Theft Auto
City Theft Auto drops you into a sprawling urban environment where the goal is to live the gangster life — stealing cars, pulling off stunts, and roaming freely through busy streets. The city is populated with cars, vans, trucks, motorcycles, and pedestrians, giving the open world a lived-in feel. Missions range from car theft jobs to cargo delivery runs to trampoline stunt challenges, and between missions the city is yours to explore at your own pace.
The game offers realistic car performance and physics alongside realistic controls, and the vehicle roster spans both cars and motorcycles. One scene shows a green car parked beside a white sidewalk next to a blue water channel, while another moment places a black vehicle with a white top and blue and red light bars on a city street. In one arena, a large concrete half-pipe ramp is decorated with a black and yellow tiger-head illustration and a red mouth.
How to Play City Theft Auto: Steal, Deliver, and Stunt
Pick a car or motorcycle from the wide selection available, then head out into the city. Earn money by completing the three mission types — car theft, cargo delivery, and trampoline stunts — and spend that money to buy new vehicles. Riding freely through the city and exploring different areas is always an option when you want a break from missions.
