GTA 3 Story
Claude is the main character in the game. Since 1992, he and his girlfriend Catalina plan to rob a bank in Liberty City. The robbery is carried out and the money is taken from the bank, but Catalina doesn’t want to split the money with Claude and betrays him by shooting him in front of the bank. Claude, who cannot forget this betrayal, wants to take revenge on Catalina. He works for many mafias in Liberty City, sometimes as a hit man, and earns money. His goal is to find his girlfriend Catalina and make her pay for what she has done. Over time, he commits major assassinations and robberies and makes a name for himself in the city. The play is shaped around these events.
Catalina, Claude’s girlfriend, claims the money from the bank she and Claude robbed on her own and causes Claude to be caught by the police. Catalina is a woman who wants everything for herself and considers herself great. She is of Mexican descent and has no mercy for anyone, whoever gets in her way, she will spend them without blinking an eye. Together with her new boyfriend Miguel, she runs the Colombian Cartel gang.
Claude also appeared in GTA San Andreas. He competed against Carl Johnson, the main character of San Andreas and Catalina’s ex-boyfriend, but lost. This all happened after Catalina broke up with Carl Johnson and moved to Liberty City with Claude.
Claude’s life and future after his revenge is unknown. Most people assume that Claude is dead, but this is wrong; Claude is still alive today. He is most likely still living in Liberty City. The biggest theories are that he has returned to his hometown of San Fierro.

Grand Theft Auto III (GTA 3 for short) is an open-world action-adventure video game developed by Rockstar North. It is the third main game in the Grand Theft Auto series, and the fifth game not counting the main sequel. It was released for the PlayStation 2 platform on October 22, 2001 in North America and October 26, 2001 in Europe. The PC version of the game was released in 2002 and the Xbox version in 2003. In 2010, it was also ported for the Mac platform. In 2011, in honor of its 10th anniversary, Grand Theft Auto III: 10 Year Anniversary Edition on Apple iOS and Android mobile platforms. Finally, in 2012, it was released as a downloadable title on the PlayStation 3’s PlayStation Network (PSN) service. It is the first revolutionary three-dimensional game in the series, not two-dimensional like other older games in the series.
The game takes place in 2001 in Liberty City, the most familiar city in the GTA series. The city is modeled primarily after New York, but also draws inspiration from a number of cities on the US East Coast and in the mid-west, such as Philadelphia, Detroit, Baltimore, etc. The game’s story follows the life of a mafia character named Claude, who is betrayed by his girlfriend and struggles to avenge her betrayal.
GTA III breathed new life into the series with its three-dimensional nature and perhaps laid the foundations for the legendary series that has endured to this day. With its success, it radically changed the flow of the game world. After its sales success, the game was not limited to a single platform; over time, it found its place on many platforms.
