Grand Theft Animals is a brand-new open-world VR game where disorder reigns. Your only limit is how fast you can run from the law. This goofy crime sandbox invites players to cause chaos, chase cash, and stay one jump ahead of the law in a city that’s anything but normal.
What is Grand Theft Animals?
Diving straight into the action, the game puts players directly in control of a first-person crime spree built for VR. Want to make money? Take on high-speed pizza delivery missions or just beat it out of people on the street. Looking for fun? Buy suspicious items from street vendors and brace for unpredictable side effects. Need wheels? Rent a car, ramp it onto a rooftop, and hope you stick the landing.
There are no rules here. But there are consequences.
Grand Theft Animals Gameplay
The low-poly world of Dope City is your playground. Your goal is to make money, and you can do so by any means necessary. Beat up the locals, rob and loot stores and homes. However, don’t get caught; getting out of jail costs money.
You can use your ill gotten gains to by items from vendors that can bring havoc to the world. But doing so increases the risk you’ll face. Cause too much trouble and you’ll have flashing lights on your tail.
Of course, Grand Theft Animals wouldn’t live up to its obvious inspiration without vehicles. You’ll be choosing from a growing fleet of rentable rides, from janky sedans to overpowered sports cars. Use them to explore, escape, or absolutely ruin someone’s day.
