* Trevor, a former military pilot turned friend/partner in crime of Michael's who is about his age, but never retired, and remained a drug-abusing career criminal living in a trailer out in the desert of Blaine County.

* TheNewTens: May very well become an UnintentionalPeriodPiece for this current decade, as did ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV'' for TurnOfTheMillennium. The game takes place during an economic downturn, where class divisions are stark. The mobile phone has been stated to have internet-browsing capabilities, likely making it a smartphone.

* YouBastard: WordOfGod states that Trevor is, essentially, the typical ''GTA'' player personified as a character -- [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential a vicious psychopath who runs around causing havoc, death, and destruction for his own amusement.]]

* SequelEscalation: Rockstar has described the map as being bigger than those of ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas San Andreas]]'', ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV GTA IV]]'' and ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption'' put together. On top of having a full-sized city, the game also features the surrounding countryside.
