Thanks to Google Play, anybody with a compatible phone can put GTA San Andreas in their pockets.

Back in 2004, this game completely redefined the landscape of open world gaming. There was so much to do yet so little time, given the size and scope of its missions and maps. Several years later, this console experience is now available on mobile phones.

Anybody with an Android device can simply log into Google Play and install GTA San Andreas. While mobile gaming isn't for everyone, some players are always on the go and need something to keep them busy. GTA San Andreas offers more than 70 hours of gameplay, which is more than enough time.
