GTA fans have hoped, prayed, and kept their fingers crossed. And so we're honored to be able to share some great news with you. A remaster is coming of GTA 3, GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas - first bundled as a trilogy way back in '05. And the remastered GTA Trilogy is coming sooner than you think!
UPDATE – September 27:
With the GTA 5 Expanded and Enhanced Edition officially being delayed to March 2022, it seems very likely that the GTA Trilogy Remaster might also not be released in 2021. Several reputable leakers industry insiders suggest that we will see the GTA Trilogy Remaster in 2022 and are convinced that the original release window of 2021 is unrealistic.
I wasn't going to mention the GTA Remastered Trilogy, because everything I've heard has been covered - The only difference is that I don't believe the launch time frame is correct.
