Zaibatsu is a seemingly legitimate corporation which inhabits every district of the city.  They manufacture everything from cars to medication, but beneath the surface they are involved heavily in narcotics, contract-killing and shadow politics. Their car, called a Z-Type, is the second fastest gang car available.  There are three Zaibatsu representatives who offer the player jobs:  Trey Welsh in the Commercial District, Red Valdez in the Residential District, and Uno Carb in the Industrial District. Their name comes from ''zaibatsu'', the Japanese word for conglomerate. Their gang color is gray.

Also known as Sex and Reproductive Systems (SRS), they are headquartered in the Residential District and run a clandestine research institute.  Their concerns are advanced weapon development, human cloning, genetic engineering and robotics. Their gang color is gold, and all of their 'street' members appear to be genetically-engineered clone soldiers. Their gang car is called a Meteor and is the fastest gang car available. Their 'turf' is the Scientist Research Center, a sterile, oppressive-looking campus with a profusion of complex machinery. Although in other gangs the members only had pistols, the SRS members portray pistols, machine guns and flamethrowers.

The Krishnas reside in a commune/temple at the edge of the Industrial District. Their car, the Karma Bus, is a big love bus with flowers painted on its roof. Their gang color is bright orange. The Krishnas abhor technology, and their criminality is entirely based around stealing and destroying vehicles. The ''GTA2'' game manual states this is due to the fact that they are tired of being run over by cars (a reference to the first ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'', where the player was rewarded for running them down).
