Save the game with GTA 5: How GTA saves

• In GTA 5 story mode, the game is always saved automatically. The option is activated by default and can be checked in the main menu under the options.
• If you also pull out your character's cell phone, you can create up to 14 of your own memory spaces there. Another option is to stand in bed in the house. The option to save then appears automatically after a few seconds.
