Unlike other games in the series, GTA2 is set in an unspecified time in a metropolis referred to only as "Anywhere City". The year is not specified, but the game's manual uses the phrase "three weeks into the future"; fictional journal entries on the GTA2 website suggest the year to
be 2013. However, radio host Johnny Riccaro mentions in the game that "the millennium's coming," which would set the game shortly before 2000. The player is a man named Claude Speed, who is freed from prison, having awakened from a cryonic sleep but experiences amnesia. The storyline shifts to his goal of becoming the "King of the City" by any means necessary. The City is split into three levels, or "districts." The first level, Downtown, is a hub of business activity as well as the site of a large mental institution and university. The second area, the Residential District, contains the city's prison, a trailer park with an Elvis-themed bar dubbed "Disgracelands", a shopping mall, and a giant hydroelectric power plant. The third and final area is the Industrial District; it holds a large seaport, a meat packing plant, a Nuclear Power Plant and a Krishna temple.
