Where can I download GTA2?
GTA2 v11.44 (Windows 11 compatible*) – [17MB] (this version has no music or intro, I should really add them back in sometime, I made this years ago)
I recommend installing to “c:\games” or your documents folder. Installing to “c:\program files” is not a good idea since that folder is often protected by Windows and may prevent GTA2 and GTA2 Game Hunter from writing to the folder. If GTA2 crashes on launch then right click on the icon and select “Run as administrator”. The installer doesn’t create any desktop shortcuts or start menu items, so you’ll have to do that yourself.
Running GTA2 in Windows 98/ME compatibility mode can help reduce some crashes.
If you want to play GTA2 on Linux, read this guide.
* May require running as admin, changing folder permissions or offering a sacrifice to the GTA2 gods.
About this release
This is an unofficial version of GTA2, so don’t expect any support from Rockstar Games. It has numerous unofficial bug fixes and improvements patched into the executable. If you would like to know exactly what has changed, see the gta2.exe changelog.
Due to all these changes, this release is the ONLY release supported by GTA2 Game Hunter. Now that you have this release, you do not need any other patches.
How do I play online?
Get GTA2 Game Hunter – the best way for finding GTA2 multiplayer opponents. It’s a small and free program that can be used to meet GTA2 players, hang out and play GTA2 multiplayer games. Warning: May require hours of port forwarding/firewall troubleshooting.

There are several mistakes in the manual. The multiplayer section sounds like they are describing GTA1, you can’t select a character in GTA2. The error used to be mentioned on the take2games.com support site.
– 7 kill frenzies in the demo, can you finish them before the 6 minutes?

Hi, how about “unable to open data/jointmap.gmp”?
Try running gta2manager, going to debug tab and untick skip frontend.
I think that might also happen if your test1.seq was modified, in that case, install the original file again.
iam so happy if it is true
Hello and thanks! But what about the intro music? its essencial af
I keep getting an error saying “unable to open data/ms.sty” any fixes

How can i fix it? Older versions work just fine
How do I make the game run with ThirteenAG’s widescreen patch? It won’t start at all.
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
Widescreen patch doesn’t work for me either. I tried to rewrite various values in .ini, but nothing helped. Also gamepad support is very buggy. I have Windows 10 64-bit
