Story missions
Portland
Claude is betrayed by his girlfriend Catalina
when she shoots him during a bank heist,
leaving him for dead.
He survives and is arrested, but on the way to the penitentiary,
the Colombian Cartel ambushes the convoy to kidnap another prisoner,
destroying the bridge in the process
and isolating the island of Portland from other parts of Liberty City,
and he and another prisoner named 8-Ball manage to escape.
Introduction
“Sorry babe. I'm an ambitious girl, and you?
You're just small time.”
— Catalina
The Introduction is a short series of introductory cutscenes
serving as a pre-emptive explanation of the events
leading up to the start of the first mission
in Grand Theft Auto III, Give Me Liberty.
It is not classed as a mission,
but the cutscenes play whenever a new game is started.
Description
Bank heist
The Introduction opens with a shot of the Liberty City Bank,
as a Banshee driven by Miguel zips by and stops in front of an adjoining alleyway
to pick up a team of three bank robbers who have just robbed the bank:
Catalina, Claude and an unnamed associate with Colombian Cartel attire.
Claude falls behind while escaping, and finds that Catalina has killed the unnamed associate
and has aimed the gun towards him. She tells him that she is an "ambitious girl"
and no longer needs him, since she now has connections with Miguel,
who is a Colombian Cartel leader, and shoots him.
She and Miguel escape in the Banshee, leaving Claude for dead.
Claude survives, however, and is arrested by the LCPD.
Give Me Liberty
“I know a place on the edge of the Red Light District where we can lay low,
but my hands are all messed up so you better drive, brother.”
— 8-Ball
Give Me Liberty is the first storyline mission of Grand Theft Auto III.
It is given to protagonist Claude by explosives expert 8-Ball from the Callahan Bridge,
Portland Island, Liberty City. The mission serves as a tutorial mission,
teaching new players the controls of the game.
Luigi Goterelli
Luigi's Girls
“One of my girls needs a ride, so grab a car and pick up Misty from the clinic.
Then bring her back here. Remember no one messes with my girls!
So keep your hands on the wheel! If you don't mess this up,
maybe there be more work for you. Now get outta here!”
— Luigi Goterelli
Luigi's Girls is the second mission in Grand Theft Auto III.
It is given to protagonist Claude by club owner Luigi Goterelli
from his club in the Red Light District immediately after Give Me Liberty.

Grand Theft Auto III is a 2001 action-adventure game developed by DMA Design and published by Rockstar Games. It is the third main entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, following 1999's Grand Theft Auto 2, and the fifth instalment overall. Set within the fictional Liberty City (loosely based on New York City), the story follows Claude, a silent protagonist who, after being betrayed and left for dead by his girlfriend during a robbery, embarks on a quest for revenge that leads him to become entangled in a world of crime, drugs, gang warfare, and corruption. The game is played from a third-person perspective and its world is navigated on foot or by vehicle. Its open world design lets players freely roam Liberty City, consisting of three main areas.
Development was shared between DMA Design, based in Edinburgh, and Rockstar, based in New York City. Much of the development involved transforming popular elements from the Grand Theft Auto series into a fully 3D world for the first time. The game was delayed following the September 11 attacks to allow the team to change references and gameplay deemed inappropriate. It was released in October 2001 for the PlayStation 2, in May 2002 for Windows, and in October 2003 for the Xbox.
Grand Theft Auto III received critical acclaim, with particular praise directed at its concept and gameplay. However, it also generated controversy, with criticism directed at its depictions of violence and sex. It became the best-selling video game of 2001, and sold over 14.5 million copies by March 2008. Considered by many critics as one of the most significant titles of the sixth generation of video games and a landmark game in the open world concept, it is often listed among the greatest video games. It won several year-end accolades, including Game of the Year awards from several gaming publications. Since its release, it has received ports to many different gaming platforms. An enhanced version of the game was released on mobile platforms in 2011 for the game's tenth anniversary, and a further enhanced version for the twentieth anniversary was released in 2021. The game was followed by 2002's Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, while two prequels, Grand Theft Auto Advance and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, were released in 2004 and 2005, respectively.
