GUIDE / GTA III, VICE CITY, GTA VI NEWS AND TRAILERS / UPDATED OCTOBER 25, 2026
Short answer: yes, two of the classics, free, with nothing to install. GTA: Vice City (browser port) and GTA III (browser port) run in a browser tab on the community's reverse-engineered versions of the games' code (reVC and re3), hosted by Quenq with the game data included: press PLAY GAME, wait for the download (about 130 MB and 116 MB) and start a new game. GTA VI itself comes out on November 19, 2026, and not in a browser. All unofficial: GTA belongs to Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive, and we link to these pages rather than host them.
GTA: VICE CITY IN A BROWSER TAB
Pulling up to the Malibu Club. An Infernus at the neon steps, Vice City, 2002.
Game clips from the wall every week: @neongamewall on TikTok ↗
The full PC games, rated M, on community engine ports. Give each a minute or two to load the first time. On Quenq's pages, skip the big blue Play and Download boxes above the game: they are ads that install browser extensions. The game's own PLAY GAME button is inside the dark frame.
Tommy Vercetti, 1986 and the neon: the whole 2002 game on DOS Zone's reVC WebAssembly port, hosted by Quenq with the game's own data. We started a new game and the opening cutscene led Tommy out into Vice City. A Save Manager takes .b saves from the PC or PS2 game, a Mod Manager installs mods, and a frame-rate cap fixes missions that break above 30 fps. About 130 MB before CLICK ANYWHERE TO START.
Where 3D GTA began: Liberty City's three islands, the radio and the Mafia jobs, on the reverse-engineered re3 code, also hosted by Quenq. Same Save and Mod Managers; our new game played the opening cutscene down to the police convoy. About 116 MB before the start screen, a little lighter than Vice City.
Rockstar's own videos, newest first. More screenshots and artwork on Rockstar's GTA VI media page ↗.
Nobody outside Rockstar has played it yet: the August previews were hands-off, with Rockstar at the controls in Edinburgh.
Gameplay videos have leaked since August under the name Cyberleek, and Take-Two has gone to court to find out who is behind them. What the news has reported (we don't link the leaked footage). Accounts selling crypto tokens under the leaker's name are a scam.
What each one plays, what your browser downloads before you can play, and whether it works by touch.

Open worlds, stolen cars and wanted stars, built to run in a tab.
Launched as a 'Taipei GTA' homage: walk, ride scooters and drive through Ximending and the streets around Taipei 101, take on missions (around 90 by one count) and outrun the police, all cartoony and with no Rockstar names. Guests can play; it plays by touch in landscape.
GTA rules in real Latvian towns rebuilt from map data: steal a car and flip through its radio, and witnesses raise wanted stars until SWAT and the army arrive. Private rooms for up to 16 friends. About 70 MB before you are walking around Talsi.
The 2003 game that put GTA's formula in Springfield: drive, smash and do the family's missions, ported to WebAssembly from its source code. About 54 MB to start; it needs a keyboard.
Yes. As of October 25, 2026, GTA: Vice City (browser port) and GTA III (browser port) both run in a browser tab, free, with no download to install and no account. They are the full PC games on community engine ports, not remakes, and you do not need your own copy: Quenq's pages include the game data.
November 19, 2026, on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, per Rockstar's pre-order announcement. Pre-load and boxed copies (a code in the box) arrive November 12.
Rockstar has not announced a PC version; GamesBeat reported on October 13, from four anonymous sources, that one is planned for early 2027. There is no browser version: until then, Vice City and GTA III above are the GTA you can play on a computer.
Rockstar posted it on October 15, five weeks before launch: Jason's past in the army, Lucia leaping from a speeding car onto a plane in flight, heists, fist fights, motorcycle stunts and police chases. It is the first video in our trailer list above.
Yes, repeatedly. Rockstar called this year's leaked gameplay videos "heartbreaking" in August, and Take-Two has filed subpoenas to unmask the leaker known as Cyberleek. None of the leaked footage is confirmed by Rockstar, and we do not link it. Sources are in Leaks and rumours above.
GTA: Vice City (browser port) if you want the neon, the 1980s soundtrack and Tommy Vercetti; GTA III (browser port) for the darker Liberty City and a slightly smaller download. For something lighter that was built for the browser, Taipei Rush (臺北狂飆) loads faster and plays by touch.
About 130 MB before Vice City's start screen and about 116 MB before GTA III's, measured in Chrome, with more of the city streaming in as you drive. Both are cached after the first visit. Every classic port with its size is in our guide to classic games in your browser.
Both setup screens have a Save Manager that uploads .b save files from the PC or PS2 game and downloads backups, and a Mod Manager that installs mods (it links GameModding.com and GTAinside). We have not installed a mod.
No, it is not official: Rockstar and Take-Two did not make or license these ports, and Take-Two has had browser copies taken down before (DOS Zone removed its own Vice City after a DMCA request), so they could disappear. Quenq's pages carry ads and a Disqus comment thread around the game; since October 24 the ads include big blue 'Play: With Windows Extension' and 'Download' boxes that install browser extensions, so skip those and press PLAY GAME inside the dark game frame. Both games are rated M for violence, crime and language, so not for kids.
Quenq says both show touch controls on phones (landscape and fullscreen work best) and that controllers work; we played them on a computer. Taipei Rush (臺北狂飆) plays by touch in landscape. More in our guide to browser games on your phone.
For San Andreas, yes, with AI help and your own installed copy of the game: how levelsio used Claude Code to make a GTA San Andreas mission, with his prompt and a starter to build your own.
