The map gives indication to the full size and scale of Los Santos, which reportedly sports a larger gameworld than Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and Grand Theft Auto IV combined.

GTA V’s three playable protagonists are Trevor, Michael, and Franklin. Players will also be able to access the online component, GTA Online, when it launches on October 1 as a free update to the game.

According to Rockstar Games, real-life gang members were brought on to contribute authentic voice-overs to the game. GTA V will also feature over 240 licensed songs.

GTAV will be released on September 17 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
