How to unlock the A New Perspective achievement in Grand Theft Auto V - Definitive Guide

The view (cn_back) button changes perspective. Switch to first-person then leave your console running for 15 hours. This achievement is cumulative and does not have to be done all in one go or with one character, but it does have to be done all on one save file.

You can view your current progress with this achievement by visiting the "Stats" screen in the Pause menu, then going to "General".

[PS4 ONLY] On the PlayStation 4 version of Grand Theft Auto V, you cycle through camera modes by pressing .

Progress towards this trophy counts in either First Person on-foot or in-vehicle and is cumulative between Story Mode & GTA Online.

Tips
• Track your progress in the pause menu. Stats > General/Career > Time played in first person.
• By default, if you enable FPS you'll be forced to use it for both in-vehicle and on-foot. To enable seperate cameras in each mode, in the pause menu go into Settings > Display and enable Allow Independent Camera Modes.

If you despise First-Person view you can always just leave the game idle for 15 hours. Just be sure to turn OFF all of the PlayStation 4's auto-off features such as "System" and "Controller Auto-Off" in the system settings to ensure your sytem remains powered.

Thanks to Supremacy for writing and providing the guide for this specific trophy.

As a brand new feature brought to GTA V and GTA Online for Xbox One, players now hold the ability to play as their character(s) in the first person perspective mode. In order to switch between the standard third person view and the new first person perspective, you will need to tap the "view" button on the Xbox One controller one or two times.

This will toggle between the various different camera angeles in third person before entering the new first person perspective mode. As a note, this works whether you are on foot or sitting inside a vehicle (car, plane, helicopter, etc.) Since this achievement requires so much time spent in the new mode, many players may not necessarily want to work towards this legitimately during their time on the game.

Fortunately, as confirmed by Just Blaze, you can grind this achievement out by sitting in a car or standing anywhere in the world - in your house, for example - in first person mode. Any time spent in this mode during your playthrough will add to the in-game clock that can be found by following these steps: PAUSE > STATS > GENERAL > TIME PLAYED IN FIRST PERSON.

Regardless of which way you decide to approach this task, the achievement will finally unlock once a minimum of fifteen hours have been registered in the new first person perspective mode.

No need to be tricky and squeeze the sticks with a rubber band, leave Fraknlinadome, switch to first-person view, and sit down to watch TV, connect the gamepad to the console, and in the settings of the curling iron itself, turn off the automatic shutdown of the dual shock, and go mind your own business, 15 hours and the trophy is yours.

You can get it yourself, play as Franklin, he has his own motorcycle, it’s very interesting to ride a motorcycle in first person, try to turn on first-person mode before the start of cutscenes.

If you leave the game overnight, do not forget:
1. Put the character in a corner (It's best to do this at home)
2. Pinch the left stick of the Dualshock with a rubber band so that the character walks, thereby the Dualshock will not turn off to save energy.
3. And of course, connect the Dualshock to the PS4 so that it doesn’t run out of power and turn off at night.

you can call a taxi and drive in first person. At this time you can go about your business. 1 trip from the city to Sandy Shores airport 10-20 minutes. No one can call you at this time.

The achievement is cumulative. Online time + single player is summed up.

The achievement is buggy, 1 day 3 nights (obviously more than 15 hours) worth the curling iron in first person mode by Franklin, the trophy never dropped. Either this only applies to Online, or you have to hold down the stick for it to run.

Single and Online time does not add up!
Now I have 7 hours online, and 10 in single.

It’s best to get the trophy while you’re driving somewhere (taxi or personal vehicle), but if it’s so inconvenient, you can take the trophy after completing the story while you’re busy collecting.

It is not necessary to play continuously, you can play with breaks and turn off the console, general statistics are counted, they are also in the game menu.)

You don’t need to complicate life for yourself and your console, you don’t need to leave anything overnight or use rubber bands, just go through the story like I did, in first-person mode, as well as side effects, the trophy dropped on its own

As of November 2022 online and the plot is summarized.
But it is hours , not minutes, that are added up .
The story ran for 2 hours and 21 minutes. The trophy dropped without delay when the online time reached 13 hours 01 seconds.
