Grand Theft Auto V Multiplayer was the cancelledmultiplayer mode forGrand Theft Auto V.

The development of the multiplayer mode was dropped byRockstar North in favor of the stand-alone multiplayer titleGrand Theft Auto Online, which comes free with every retail copy ofGrand Theft Auto V and advertised as an entirely separate product ever since its release.

Description[]

Little is known about this multiplayer mode; however, leftovers found in the game files and early development screenshots on Rockstar North's UI designerSteven Walsh's website^[1] suggest the multiplayer mode was originally similar toGrand Theft Auto IV Multiplayer, accessed through a "Multiplayer" tab on thePause Menu.

The only known game mode was some sort of "Territory War" between gangs ofLos Santos and theLSPD dubbed "The CnC Heist" (Cops 'n' Crooks). Players would have to choose a gang member/cop model, each with a defined name, similar to the multiplayer character selection inGrand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories andGrand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.

The concept of the multiplayer mode appears to be have been a mix between two previous multiplayer game modes in the series – "Cops 'n' Crooks" fromGrand Theft Auto IV and "Own The City" fromThe Lost and Damned.

The CnC Heist[]

Leftovers[]

Leftovers of the CnC Heist mode are found within the files for the PC version ofGrand Theft Auto V, including a total of 41 designated territory areas to be acquired by each gang, similar to Steven Walsh's territory map concept.

While the original 2012 concept map shows more than 41 territories in Los Santos alone, it also included areas that make no sense as a territory such as empty mountain ranges – the map was simply aconcept regardless.

If the gang territory function is enabled in-game, each territory will cycle between three colors – blue, yellow and grey for the Cops, Vagos and Bikers respectively, also shown in the concept map. Each territory appears to support up to three possible owners simultaneously, and the map would cycle between each owner's colors.
