It's here, the moment you've all been waiting for! Rockstar Games have just released the first official trailer for Grand Theft Auto IV! Grab it from the official site while you can.

Information

  • The game takes place in a modern day New York (Liberty City) setting
  • The main character appears to be Eastern European, possibly Russian
  • He speaks the line "Life is complicated - I killed people, smuggled people, sold people. Perhaps here, things will be different." towards the end of the trailer.

Trailer Mirrors:

See our trailers page for a complete list of both high and standard definition versions. Or if you're eager to see it, here's a quick mirror I've uploaded of the HD version:

Screenshots:

For now I have taken some screen caps of the trailer, keep an eye on our screenshots page though, as we hope to have some official, and actual screenshots soon.

Impressions: From IGN and GameSpy, as well as these topics on our forums.

Wow, wow, wow.

I was not expected it to look that good. Looks like a return to Liberty City after all. The GTA main site is running a bit slow(really slow) and I found a high def version at gamevideos.

HD http://gamevideos.com/video/id/10301

SD http://gamevideos.com/video/id/10302

Totally worth the wait. Way to go Rockstar.

Do you think that this could be the first of many trailers, and the other trailers will be about other cities. This one is Liberty, the next one could be Vice City, and then Maybe San Andreas and maybe more.

I'm not convinced it's in Liberty City. Where the trailer sites looks nothing like the Liberty City we know. It doesn't say "Liberty Tree" on that building, it says "Libertee" which isn't enough proof for me.

Edit: It could just be in New York, though.

So there still could be hope yet that it's in the uk...like that other guy said about the trailers.everyone had their hopes up about it being in london.seriously this is gonna be crap if it's just a remake of gta3.But hey it's only march.

Hell no, the game's going to be released in October. The trailer was great and many might be crazy when I say this but it wasn't as good, IMO as some of the past trailers considering we only see one main character.

Keep your "f***ing russian lowlife asshole" accent to minimum. DONT LIKE IT?? Well go cry about it to your mom.

While the rest of us will play the game, and enjoy it.

I hate f***ers who try creating opposite shit of what is real.

Ill be fine with the GFX if whole ( or biggest part) NY will be in GTA4, but if theres only some part of it that is about the size of SA - then excuse me but that GFX is piece of shit!

Well, yes it was a bit of a teaser but... It's biased sorta for them to say it's long because they made it. I'm sure they showed just key parts sorta all around the video and since they know everything about the game they see how those tiny parts are deffinetly showing what the game's about. They just didn't realize that we wouldn't see it extremely clearly. That's my opinion though...

What I think is the coolest thing, but also scary, is that it's like this game was MADE for me and my best friend. Why? Because we're obsessed with Russian people. Like, make jokes about it, wanting to take trips there, and talking about it ALL THE TIME! She wants to even learn Russian that's how obsessed she is!

I'm sure it WILL be bigger. You see GTA III wasn't like an exact copy of NYC, so in GTA IV, they added lots of buildings that weren't in GTA III, and some of their own I'm sure. The point is, It is very likely to be bigger. One thing I AM worried is GTA IV no having country-outback like area, you know, like Red County in SA, Whetstone.

With 120gb 360's and 60gb PS3's I feel no doubt it'll be bigger than SA. Either that or it'll be around the same and we can walk in EVERY building. EVERY SINGLE ONE.

A variety of familiar fictional brands from earlier GTA games appear in the trailer, including Sprunk, Kronos, The Liberty Tree, Cluckin' Bell, MeTV, Logger Beer, Bank of Liberty and Burger Shot. New to the series and shown in the trailer are Fleeca, Whiz (mobile phones), Liberteen, Max Renda (makeup), E Cola (soda) and Bean Machine (coffee house). America's Next Top Hooker (parody of America's Next Top Model) and I Slept With Your Mom (stage show) are also advertised on billboards in the trailer.

Rockstar also revealed that all the trailer's footage is generated real-time via the game's RAGE game engine, running on an actual game console, and that it was not pre-rendered.[9] Whether the footage is running on Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 has yet to be specified so that means the graphics are going to be just like that

Not if you can buy all the properties and have a wider variety of building an empire like it sorta had in VCS. I can't even say all the possibilities they could have for all the houses. But I'm sure there'd be some point for it.

It's ruinning on the 360 for sure considering it says XBox team or something on the bottom right screen while watching the video. But that means a little better for the PS3 graphics wise.

Looks really similar to me. Looks like they switched the color of the pants and the jacket though, if you watch the video (the picture of the GTA guy is really unclear) you'll see that he's wearing track pants that are the same color as the antagonist from Behind Enemy Lines' jacket.

Hey guys don`t be dissapointed, R* said they don`t make sequels that have 10%, so they probably know what they`re doing, I just hope that guy is not the main-character he ennoyed me when I fisrt saw him.

Hey guys have you noticed something?At the end it shows the russian(or whatever) but when you see a guy in the car there is a blonde dude, I mean I`m not fool, I dunno what to believe.I`ll come with a screenshot.

Yeah, new online record for TGTAP. I couldn't see it at it's release, stupid server just wouldn't come online and then I just had to go to bed.

The graphics are awesome. Notice that when the car bumps a small metal cap you really heared a metal sound.

It just didn't look like GTA. Like how the old engine rendered stuff. I'll get used to it.

Also R* has kept the good old cluck'n bell in the game and also Sprunk. They also had a hotel name "getalife". A little add for a movie titled: "Slept with my Mom". And one more little add: Top Hooker.

The boat states, Liberty City. So although this is a new serie, they still have that name in it.

Now let's hope R* manages to get the old GTA feel with the the new gen of graphic. It was far better then I expected.

Nah, it's the Russian guy for sure. The guy with blonde hair in the car was probably just some rich ped, I bet R* just wanted to show off the car. I know the protagonist is... old but imagine a young Russian guy, that would just sound a bit weird. I like that it is a Russian protagonist, almost definite re-appearance of the Russian Mafia!

Yeah actually you could be right. I've seen the film a couple of times and he does look quite similar. I think I might research some other films that had Russians in them.

Best. Typo. Ever.

Of course, all thongs are differed, they differ in size, colour etc.

However, I don't think we'll be seeing our protagonist wearing a thong. See, this is why you should look at what you're typing ;)

I honestly think another one won't come out for a couple months.

I think we'll get a new trailer in about 3 months, and some pics in 1 to 2 months.

Awsome trailer!! Too bad It'll take ages for me to get a PS3 :(. I wish they would set it somewhere different though!. Its always Liberty, or... maybe you fly to London and do some business there. I dunno

AWSOME TRAILER!!!!!!!!

Honestly guys, I`m really dissapointed.The graphics are amazing, the character look like a motherf***er, I mean I don`t wanna play that guy, he looks like shit.Why isn`t a 18year-old teen-ager not this 40 dude.I`m dissapointed by the city too.I mean I`m tired of NY, if it doesn`t have other cities I think this game`s sales will drop...

I'd personally not prefer playing as an 18-year-old after seeing how good he trailer was. We don't even know if he's 40 years old. Plus, the game might be New York based again but that doesn't mean the sales will drop. Come on, this is GTA IV. It's supposed to be another revolutionary GTA.

Well the obvious thing I saw are awesome, photo-real graphics. That brings the problem of system specs for PC (if ever done, otherwise we'll be playing downloaded ports from PS3 or Xbox 360 :P

Well as I looked the trailer a few times and started pausing/playing it I noticed a few things:

- Obvious it's located in Liberty City with some New York City tints.

- First screen with the metro/train in the top left u see flyUS or maybe flyU6 I don't know

- Then at the Ferry thing at the water; you see a boat at the right. (In GTA 3 there was a ferry too in Portland..)

Btw. I love the water flow.

- Then the music goes faster and the screens too and u see Liberteen standing. (LC, High Buildings = NY)

- The statue and you know the name.. ;)

- Then u got the fast going lines, now I paused really fast and all that stuff and I found one interesting thing, at top bar it's saying African Markets ... and the guy says at the end of the trailer; I've killed people, Smuggled people, Sold people.

- Funny thing middle bar is saying Cheese Crisis.. (Maybe some can help figuring out more in those fast going text lines?)

- Then 2 screens later orso you see a beer thing at the left (just to regcognize it) and there is standing 360 and I slept with Mom on signs.

- At the big road thingie with all the stuff you can see Liberty City coming back many times and Liberty Tree.

- At the screen with ME TV and the weapon and burger thing a police car drives by with LCPD standing on it.

- A boat with Liberty City on it.

That's all I got to say. Mutch of this is already mentioned but I just like to list it for you all.

I like the trailer so much and the Russian Guy gives the GTA Series a good new look. "Things Will Be Different" Eh ;)

Really makes me thing about getting a new console, is something I have been thinking about, specially Xbox, I am not much of a gamer anymore but companies keep releasing new games that really make me want to play again.

Really good trailer, I liked almost every aspect of it.

Yep it's definitely set in LC, you can see advertisements for the Liberty Tree and theres the boat with Liberty City stamped on the back. Theres also this Screen i took of a Police Car with LC written on it.

I guess it will definetly be called Liberty City then.

But I still think that Moscow could be another possibility for another city in the game.

Or Vice City. I think it will just be Liberty City.

Well If they are making New York city to scale I doubt they would be able to fit Moscow in aswell.

Not really, may be just an advert, but there are better pics that suggest it is most likely in Liberty city.

For me, the key theme in this trailer was R* showing off the dynamic lighting and shadows, as well as establishing location and characters.

i think it's one of the coolest trailers that rockstar ever made

and that quote saying he killed, smuggled and sold people and perhaps things will be different

maybe it meant that our bussiness is more legit than other gta, you know that word came from someone who look like he is going to quit or something

or maybe it could mean something else? :whistle:

we'll just have to wait for some answers!

but hopefully after this, rockstar will give us more and more information including screenshots! :lol:

Well I think the fact Liberty City is New York virtually, we already know it's gonna be LC in GTAIV. Plus, theres many other things in the trailer that point to that outcome.

Everyone knows it´s in Liberty City now. Police cars with LCPD on it, Liberty City Ferry, Liberteen, Liberty Tree advertisements (And read the Gamesradar articles). I really like it that they are going to make it a modern day New York :D

Just before it goes to the building "getalife" you see a electronic board. On that there is written "Dutch" and then the next scene comes. Wonder what it was..

The scene cuts too early to read the entire line, but what we can read is:

Energy prices up following long decline

Dutch markets

And then it cuts to a different scene. It's nothing important, if anything it's just going to be a little joke.

You.ve got to play it at 0.2 speed to be able to read it.

Edit: well you never know. I bet somewhere in the trailer there is hidden information.

Hang on, nobody has mentioned anything about what will be in it!

Firstly the city is much larger than liberty city was in GTA3. (More resemblance of New York -Times square, empire state building, Statue of "liberty" etc...) I bet the statue is called "The statue of Liberty City" or something though. -Im basing this on the fact that the layout of the city is completely different.

Secondly, there could very well be a fully operational Rollercoaster, "Screamer", featured in the game. Should be good if it was ridable.

Peds interactions have dramatically improved, with smerks and even waving at people while driving. Paths have also been improved (birds too).

Water physics has been improved drastically, and a (working) ferry port is featured. Shadows and Lighting has also been improved.

More realistic cars instead of the usual fantasy cars. Also features telecabinas (dont know what it is in english).

I made an MPEG and Flash version of all as well, I'll upload them if anyone wants them, there largely smaller, however there quality is a tad less compared to the WMP version.
