It’s no surprise that a series as violent as Grand Theft Auto is home to some of the worst deaths in video games.
It’s not surprising that a franchise as gruesome and riddled with crime as Grand Theft Auto has some of the worst deaths featured in gaming. In the Grand Theft Auto series, many characters receive a grizzly death. Whether it’s a brutal shot to the head, tortured, bludgeoned to death, or somehow worse, rest assured that Grand Theft Auto has done it, and will probably do it again.
Many characters have faced a gruesome end in GTA, but sometimes, it’s not just the way that a character was killed, but it’s who was killed. Sometimes a death is unjust and undeserved and leaves a sour taste in the mouth of the player who is forced to watch such a demise. 7 Gonzalez (GTA: Vice City)
In today’s terms, Gonzalez’s death may seem a little less than extravagant. Still, it was a pretty brutal death for one of gaming’s early titles, but did Gonzalez deserve to die the way he did in GTA: Vice City? The mission itself begins after Tommy Vercetti is hired to kill Gonzalez, who has been known to have a loose tongue that could interfere in the drug business.
This isn’t just a usual assassination attempt. Instead, players are given a chainsaw to use, which will see them run around Vice City, slashing at the air as they chase down Gonzalez. The fact that Gonzalez was cut down by a chainsaw in the middle of the street shows how brutal the drug business can be. 6 Molly Schultz (GTA 5)
As Devin Weston’s lawyer, it’s no surprise that Molly Schultz has some pretty grizzly secrets. She takes care of the majority of his business, thanks to her role as the Senior Vice President and General Counsel of his industries. She would see her end after she stole a copy of the film that Michael and Solomon Richards produced together.
In her unwillingness to give up the film, and Michael’s desperation to get it back, she was chased to Los Santos International Airport.
