All the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) games have been setting trends when they came out…. but why has there been so little “out” characters in the franchise? Gaymers all agree that GTA has way too little gay characters and that the franchise has a long way to go in terms of LGBTQ representation.
Trevor Phillips is the most prominent queer character in the series and also the most underrated queer character in video game history.
The Ballad of Gay Tony is by far thr gayest game in the series, but GTA 4 (GTA IV) and GTA 5 (GTA V) still did very little to further gay representation in gaming.
This video is about examining the representation of the LGBTQ+ community in the Grand Theft Auto video game series. We’ll take a look at the past games, how far the LGBTQ+ characters have come, and how the developers have shown to be inclusive. We’ll also talk about how the games have had a positive impact on the gaming community and other media. Finally, we’ll explore what changes we’d like to see in the future of Grand Theft Auto representation.
