It took a few leaks and some waiting, but Rockstar has finally confirmed the existence of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition. Headed to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and even Nintendo Switch, the Definitive Edition will contain the three PlayStation 2-era Grand Theft Auto games and is set for launch later this year. There will also be a release on mobile platforms, scheduled for 2022. Rockstar claims that the remaster offers "across-the-board upgrades", with better graphics and some modernization to the gameplay.

It was also announced that the current versions of Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City, and San Andreas will all be delisted a week from today, so if you want to own those digital versions for preservation, the time to buy them is now.

In honor of the upcoming anniversary, today we are excited to announce that all three games will be coming to current generation platforms later this year in Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition: https://t.co/cMNwlfj3R5 pic.twitter.com/RrbCl1EWLx

"some modernization to the gameplay. "

Translation:
some censorship to the gameplay.

I was seeing double for a moment there

Guess this is why they've been doing so many takedowns recently :/ Hope this can run at 60+ fps without breaking like the originals did.

Obligatory "Where my GTA VI, RDR 3,next-gen RDR 2, remaster RDR 1, remaster GTA IV you douchebags?! I won't buy anything from you anymore!! 11"

Entitled kids going rounds on Twitter to show which one is the biggest asshole.

Personally looking forward to this and will be one of those rare games I'll actually pay up for. I just hope they don't go full on 'woke mode' and remove all the stuff that made these games what they were.

If I can't run it at 1440p/240fps, then this will be for nothing.

Would be great if there was a physical release.

even though "The trilogy" already has many songs removed, it still has a lot more than current steam versions and certainly more than the definitive edition will have haha

Heh. Oops.

I just hope it is a true "Definitive" Edition. Unlike the abominations that was made by War Drum Studios/the current one we have on Steam. Y'know, the versions that somehow came out worse than the original releases.

Nintendo Switch, that's pretty sweet, it's been quite a while since GTA was on a Nintendo. I'd probably just go with PC though.

May not be the biggest GTA fan, but at least they're not lazy-ass cloud versions.

I hope it come in with 3 physical game card cartidges and the booklet also the map. Hmmmm. . . maybe will come true

 

[orangy57]

They definitely didn't get the rights back to the songs that they've nuked from the PC versions and re-releases

I hate breaking it to you, but this is Rockstar Games and we are living in the 2020's.

Yep it is!

I really hope Vice City turns out to be nice!

I'm honestly surprised because the switch port was actually real considering how GTA V is not on the console despite being on Xbox 360

Looking forward to this one since GTA SA was THE gta for me back then and now portable (and hopefully not like the android version) is a great deal for me
