Grand Theft Auto IV (also known as GTA IV and GTA 4) is an upcoming sandbox-style action-adventure video game developed by Rockstar North. It will be the ninth title in the Grand Theft Auto series and the first in its fourth generation. Grand Theft Auto IV will be released worldwide on 29 April 2008 for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The exclusive Xbox 360 episodic packs will be released in August via Xbox Live.

The game will be set in a re-imagined GTA universe, with little-to-no continuity with previous games. The setting is a redesigned Liberty City, based heavily on New York City, as well as New Jersey. The game will follow Niko Bellic, an Eastern European who comes to the United States in search of the "American Dream," only to find his cousin has lied to him about the wealth that would be waiting for him.

The story of Grand Theft Auto IV is being written by Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser. The game will be the first in the series to use the new RAGE game engine, which also powered Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis.
