Now a recent video has broken the trailer down, showing just how many.

It’s no secret that the GTA series is mainly targeted towards adults. The games showcase many explicit scenes that are not suitable for younger audiences. One of the main reasons players play GTA is to be able to do things that would land people behind bars in real life. The games act as a great stress buster for players as long as they are only breaking laws within the games.

The video also broke down the consequences of the crimes in real life.
