As the release of Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) approaches, fans are preparing to bid farewell to GTA 5 in a heartfelt way. With a Fall 2025 release window confirmed, players are planning “one last drive” through the streets of Los Santos the night before GTA 6 launches. Here’s how the community is celebrating a decade of memories in Grand Theft Auto V .
What’s the ‘One Last Drive’ Plan?
Fans are organizing a symbolic final drive through GTA 5’s iconic map to commemorate their time in Los Santos. The route, shared on social media, takes players from the bustling city of Los Santos to the quiet desert streets of Sandy Shores—a journey that takes about 10 minutes in-game.
The drive is meant to be a nostalgic farewell to the game that has been a part of many players’ lives for over a decade.
