Indepth list of GTA 3 achievements for GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition
Once again, the credit goes to Alloc8or and the GTA Forums. They were able to leak the entire achievements list for GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition. This article will go over the ones from GTA 3. It's divided into five categories. A few of them are limited time only, so players should keep that in mind.
Mission completion achievements
These are the only mandatory achievements if the player wants to progress through the story. All they have to do is complete these GTA 3 missions. GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition offers the following achievements:
- A Gift from the King (Complete the "Kingdom Come" mission)
- A Marked Man (Complete "Last Requests")
- By a Mile (Complete the "Turismo" race in under 180 seconds)
- First Day on the Job (Complete "Luigi's Girls")
- Got Any Stories, Old Man? (Complete "Cipriani's Chauffeur")
- Not So Fast (Complete "The Exchange")
- Offshore Delivery (Complete "A Drop in the Ocean")
- Talks a Lot (Complete all phone missions)
Turismo is one of the few GTA 3 missions that can be done multiple times. Therefore, it's not a limited time event like other achievements. GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition is generous in that regard.
Side mission achievements
These achievements refer to side activities that are not part of the story:
- Furious First Responder (Complete Paramedic, Firefighter, Vigilante)
- Going Rogue (Kill 15 criminals during one Vigilante mission)
- Man Toyz (Complete every RC Toyz mission)
- Pest Control (Deliver all emergency vehicles to the crane at the Portland Docks)

- Playing Doctor (Complete Paramedic level 12)
- Relief Pitcher (Extinguish 20 fires during a single Fire Truck mission)
- Splish Splash (Extinguish 15 fires during a single Fire Truck mission)
Relief Pitcher and Splish Splash are very similar to each other. GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition merely sets them apart by a few fires.
Limited time only achievements
GTA 3 players should keep a watchful eye over these achievements. Once they complete the mission, they cannot redo it. They will have to start a new file. Here are the achievements within a specific time frame:
- Fare Game (Pick up Curly Bob in a Taxi during "Cutting the Grass")
- Mob Boss (Keep the two mafia members alive during "Triads and Tribulations")

- Without a Scratch (Deliver Mike Lips' car without a scratch on first attempt)
It's a good idea to have multiple save files with GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition.
