Every item the game actually counts toward 100% in story mode: 69 missions, 42 hobbies and pastimes, 20 Strangers and Freaks missions, any 14 of 60 random events and 16 miscellaneous tasks. Check things off as you play. Collectible sets link to their own map trackers, and one check here marks the whole set.
Checklist verified 2026-07-24 against gta.wiki, GTA BOOM and GTABase. Two common myths, corrected: ANY 14 random events count (no specific list), and the 30 submarine pieces are not required.

The percentage runs against the official requirement of 161 items (69+42+20+14+16), not the larger pools the game draws some of them from. Saved on this device; sign in and it follows your account.
69 is the official checklist count. Baseline path: Loud (Jewel Store), Freighter (Merryweather), Roof Entry (Bureau Raid), Obvious (Big Score). Choice-dependent extra setups (Bugstars Equipment + BZ Gas Grenades, Cargobob, Fire Truck, Stingers + three Gauntlet deliveries) can raise played missions above 69; the requirement stays 69. The four optional Lester assassinations are part of the 69.
The 42 required line items are listed below. The 19 that do NOT count: Yoga, Stunt Plane Time Trials, 4 Bail Bonds, 5 Arms Trafficking Air, 5 Arms Trafficking Ground, Hunting, Wildlife Photography, Stock Car Races.
Only these 20 Franklin missions count. Michael's and Trevor's Strangers and Freaks do not count. Beverly's intro mission Paparazzo and Paparazzo - The Highness do not count. The Last One is unlocked BY reaching 100% and does not count toward it.
Beverly has six Paparazzo missions in the game. Only the four listed here count toward 100%. The intro Paparazzo and Paparazzo - The Highness do not.
ANY 14 random events count; no specific events are mandated. 57 events in the original release; Duel, Sea Plane and Monkey Mosaic were added in the enhanced edition. Light-blue/gray ambient blips are not Random Events and do not count.
Any 14 of these 60 count toward 100%. No specific events are needed, so check whichever ones you have done. The counter above caps at 14; checking more keeps your own record without changing the requirement.
The 16 required items are listed below. NOT required (common misconception): 30 Submarine Pieces, 30 Nuclear Waste, buying clothes/haircut/tattoo/weapon/car mod/stocks, watching TV, cable car, car wash, fairground ride, friend golf, friend tennis. Taxi fares and towing missions are also not on the official list.
