Stranger Things Star Millie Bobby Brown Loves GTA, But Plays Differently Than Most

Stranger Things and Enola Holmes actor Millie Bobby Brown has revealed her passion for the Grand Theft Auto series and expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming GTA 6. However, her approach to playing the game differs dramatically from its intended design.

Brown plays GTA by strictly adhering to traffic laws and social norms—stopping at red lights, never running over pedestrians, and generally following all rules within the game world. She described her playstyle as similar to The Sims, focusing on law-abiding behavior even in a game designed around criminal activity and mayhem. When her husband Jake Bongiovi questioned why she plays GTA like The Sims, Brown joked about her in-game behavior, noting that while she might visit a strip club, she “is not going to get drunk.”

Brown’s unconventional gaming approach highlights the diverse ways players engage with open-world games. While Grand Theft Auto is known for its emphasis on car chases, crime, and disregard for in-game law enforcement, Brown’s “very, very good” playstyle demonstrates that players can enjoy these massive worlds through entirely different lenses. Her gaming preferences also include titles like The Sims 4 and Fortnite, suggesting she enjoys games that offer creative freedom and social simulation elements alongside competitive gameplay.
