11. GTA London 1969/1961 (Original Release: PC & PS1, 1999)

While technically these are mission packs for GTA 1, they added a ton of new content—including a brand new city to explore. GTA London 1969 was released on PC and PS1. GTA London 1961, a prequel, was released only on PC. Together, they are basically a new entry in the franchise.

GTA London is kinda strange. It’s the only time GTA has been set in the ’60s and unlike every other game in the franchise, GTA London is set in a real city. This is also the first and only game to be set outside the US. Ironically the developer and creator of Grand Theft Auto, UK located Rockstar North, didn’t develop the only UK-based GTA. Rockstar Toronto developed London 1969 and 1961.

SAD FACT: The Crisp Brothers, who were villains in the game, were both secretly voiced by famous British novelist and art critic John Berger. Sadly, he passed away in 2017.
