State of San Andreas (HD Universe)

San Andreas was the primary location of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas from the GTA III Era. It also exists in the Grand Theft Auto IV Era, although it is never seen apart from certain TV shows.

GTA IV Era

There are numerous references to San Andreas in the GTA IV Era. These include characters mentioning locations, TV shows, radio, and many others.

As seen by character dialogues and internet sites, the city names Los Santos (including Vinewood), Red County, San Fierro and Las Venturas are still used, confirming that these locations exist in the GTA IV era, though it's possible that these cities, save Los Santos, are no longer a part of the State of San Andreas, and exist in the GTA IV era as standalone cities.

Like Liberty City, San Andreas will likely undergo a redesign if it is to feature in future games. Aside from the city names, small town names are also taken and referenced in GTA IV.
