The GTA series has generated several highly successful open-world action-adventure games. The missions in these games are responsible for a large portion of their success.

Rockstar is known for developing quality products with memorable storylines in their GTA and Red Dead series. Much of this narrative is played out through in-game missions.

Some of these missions have become synonymous with the titles in which they appear and have become symbols of popular culture. Missions such as "Wrong Side of the Tracks" and "Three Leaf Clover" will live on in fans' memories as examples of excellent mission design in video games.

The number of missions in a GTA game does not indicate how large the storyline is. As a result, some games feel quite short despite having many missions, whereas others feel extremely long despite having fewer missions.

This article will rank the mainstream GTA games to increase the number of accessible story missions, from lowest to highest.


Note: For this list, only the mainline games from the 3D and HD Universes were considered.
