Grand Theft Auto Mission Pack #1: London, 1969 is a mission pack, or expansion pack, to Grand Theft Auto. GTA: London was released in 1999 for the PC and PlayStation. The game uses the same game engine as Grand Theft Auto, thus giving the game graphics reminiscent of the aforementioned game, and the gameplay and game mechanics are also very much alike those found in GTA. Like GTA the mission pack is divided into sub-sections with short cutscenes inbetween.

As the name implies, the game takes place in London in the year 1969. The player once again enters the role of a criminal looking to work his or her way up the career ladder of organized crime. The temporal setting has been exploited through a number of cultural and historical references, including the appearance of a James Bond-like character and the usage of more or less authentic slang. In addition, the cars drive on the left side of the road, as is the case in Britain.

An add-on mission pack, London, 1961, also exists, and is available as free download on GTA: London, 1969's official website.
