GTA 5 - Side Missions

In this section, you find the complete list and guide to all the GTA 5 Hobbies & Pastimes and other Side Missions, including Random Events, and various extra activities in Grand Theft Auto V.

In addition to the main Story Mode and the Strangers & Freaks missions, GTA 5 comes with many other optional endeavors and extra content that you can play at any time with the three protagonists, although some are exclusive to a specific character.

Some of these side missions are listed as "Hobbies and Pastimes" in the GTA 5 100% Checklist, while others fall under the "Miscellaneous" category. This is a complete guide to all the side activities in GTA 5.
