How to Play GTA San Andreas with Friends
Hot take here, but honestly, just get GTA Online. It’s built for multiplayer and you get to keep all the chaos of San Andreas but with way better graphics and more stuff to do. I mean, riding bikes on the beach in Los Santos with your actual friends? Sign me up.

To play GTA San Andreas with friends, you'll need a bit of a workaround since the original game doesn't support multiplayer officially. The most popular method is using a mod called San Andreas Multiplayer (SA-MP) or Multi Theft Auto (MTA). These mods essentially transform the game into an online multiplayer platform where you can join servers with other players. Just make sure everyone installs the same mod and joins the same server, and you're good to go!
I've been playing on SA-MP with my friends for years! It's a blast. Yeah, it's a little janky sometimes compared to modern games, but that's part of the charm. Setting it up is easy, just download the mod and follow the instructions. Then find a server you like (there are tons with different themes) and invite your friends to join the same one. Voila, endless fun in San Andreas!
