That move got the rumour mill started up nice and early, sparking speculation that remakes of the three classic games could potentially be in the works. The company may have shown its hand early (before all the leaks and information that you’re going to see listed in detail below) by targeting a fan project that was reverse-engineering Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City with a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown earlier this year.

So, we improve the technology, we upgrade the visuals, and we make performance enhancements.There has been speculation about a rumoured GTA Trilogy – a collection that contains the classic PS2 trilogy of GTA titles including Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas– since Take-Two hinted at three new “remasters” or “remakes” back in its Q1 2022 earnings call. Earlier this year, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick (Take-Two is Rockstar’s parent company) mentioned to VGC that the company’s strategy was that remakes/remasters should never be a simple porting job: “We’ve done differently than the competition – we don’t just port titles over, we actually take the time to do the very best job we can making the title different for the new release, for the new technology that we’re launching it on. This remake has been rumored to be happening for quite some time, most recently with a rating for the trilogy popping up in South Korea. The trilogy will be released on PC via the Rockstar Games Launcher. Rockstar says that it will remove the originals from digital retailers starting next week, so if anyone wanted to buy San Andreas or Vice City in its original state from a digital storefront, now would be the time to do it. We don’t have a specific release date, but the timeframe given by Rockstar for the mobile release is “the first half of 2022,” so presumably we’ll be getting the trilogy on other platforms before then. According to Rockstar, the games will be launching for just about every platform, including PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, iOS, and Android.
