Grand Theft Auto 1, 2 And Wild Metal PC Games Free Download

The original Grand Theft Auto released in 1997 (was it really that long ago, gulp?!) was a groundbreaking non-linear urban crime game released by game developers Rockstar.

Rockstar Classics offer three PC games from the GTA series for free download: “It’s a chance for new fans to experience the roots of Rockstar as well as our way of saying thank you to our long-time supporters feeling that pang of nostalgia”.

The games currently available for free are:

Grand Theft Auto 1 – 1997
Wild Metal – 1999
Grand Theft Auto 2 – 1999

These versions are all modified and optimized from the original versions to enable better support for more powerful modern PCs and current Windows platforms.

Warning: these games are for over 18s only.
