Spanish magazine, PSM, is publishing details of the multi-player aspects of Grand Theft Auto IV (due out April 29th). These are as follows:

According to PSM, Your fully customisable online persona can take part in 15 multi-player game modes in GTA IV in which 15 other players can interact.

The game modes featured are as follows:

2. Car Jack City

3. Bomb da Base

4. Bomb da Base II

5. Mafia Work

6. Team Mafia Work

"In Mafia Work and Team Mafia Work, you play as one of Kenny Petrovic's mafia henchmen. You must complete hits ordered by the boss (via the cellphone) before your rivals are able to do so."


7. Deathmatch

8. Team Deathmatch

Again, according to PSM, "In Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch, the host gets to decide the number of pedestrians, the amount of traffic, the intervention of police (or not), and the type of weapons."

9. Turf War

10. Cops'n'Crooks

"In this mode, one team play as cops and the other play as criminals. The cops must stop the criminals from escaping. They can monitor the locations of the criminals on their GPS systems, while the criminals don't know where the cops are."

11. Race

In Race and GTA Race, the host decides what vehicles are involved and the number of laps. Aside from shooting and molotov hurling, you can also steal competitors' cars.
