Insider's opinion


Insiders have no definite opinion about GTA 5 release on Android. But there are a lot of rumors about GTA San Andreas: The Definitive Edition porting to mobile devices. Presumably, the game is being developed by Grove Street Games and its release is scheduled for 2023.

Fan ports


A modder assian announced his ported version of GTA 5 to Android in 2017. He only ported basic elements of the game and unfortunately discontinued further development, as he could not handle the amount of work alone.
