In recent years, reports have surfaced suggesting that Rockstar Games has been working on remastered versions of older GTA titles. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S | X were released last year and rumors have started to circulate on Twitter and Reddit suggesting that Rockstar Games is working on PS2-era GTA titles. According to recent reports, a remastered version of GTA 3, GTA San Andreas and GTA Vice City will hit virtual shelves later this year.
Even though GTA 5 is one of the most successful entries in the long-running franchise, older titles with a heavy plot and cartoonish vibe have a unique charm.
Therefore, it is possible that GTA 3, GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas will be released with modern graphics, but keep their classic gameplay style.
When will remastered versions of older GTA titles be released?
If recent reports are to be believed, the remastered versions are in their final stages of development, which implies they could be released later this year.
Rockstar Dundee is believed to be behind the development of these titles as Rockstar Games is busy with GTA 6 and an expanded and enhanced version of GTA 5 for next-gen consoles (Dundee is helping Rockstar with this too) .
It's possible that remastered versions of older titles will hit stores before the expanded edition of GTA 5 does.
As mentioned earlier, the remastered versions of GTA 3, GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas will be an amalgamation of “new and old” graphics, helping the titles maintain the style of the PS2 era while still demonstrating a modern feel.
Rockstar Games removing popular map mods
In recent months, GTA Online players have reported that the developers removed popular mods from maps centered around Vice City and San Andreas, which more or less confirmed that remastered versions of the aforementioned titles are in development.
It is possible that the release date could be delayed depending on how far Rockstar Games is in the development process. More importantly, it is possible that the remastered titles will be available on different platforms, even the Nintendo Switch.
