A few days ago, the Korean Game Rating and Administration Committee rated Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition. And today, the official Rockstar Games Launcher was updated with some mentions about this upcoming remastered trilogy.
The Rockstar Games Launcher basically confirms that this trilogy will be using Unreal Engine. As you can see below, there are string values for GTA 3 Unreal, GTA San Andreas Unreal and GTA Vice City Unreal.

My guess is that Take-Two and Rockstar will officially announce this trilogy soon. As we’ve already stated, Rockstar will call this trilogy “Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition“.
It will be interesting to see whether these remasters will feature any major graphical enhancements over their vanilla versions. It will also be interesting to see whether there are any similarities between the mobile versions and these remasters. After all, the mobile versions of these three GTA games already use Unreal Engine.
Stay tuned for more!

Just give us a RDR Remaster after this.
Hold on tightly those physical copies of old GTAs, because they’ll be your only choice if you want to play those games in their unbutchered, original state.
pirates should upload the “original release dvd” version patched to work on modern systems.
There are also original versions around the web not just torrent sites.
It’s probably too much to expect Mafia 1 style remake/remaster of the GTA trilogy?
I wish Rockstar would just release the damn source code to these games, so the community could create source ports for modern systems. That’s what kept DOOM and Quake running on newer and newer PC’s so flawlessly prior to the re-releases, and many players still prefer source ports to the official updated versions. Plus think of the modding potential for open sourced GTA.
Hell, we already had reverse engineered game engines for GTA III & VC before Take Two DMCA’d them.
rockstar is stupid though.
Sad but true
That sounds like a beautiful alternative timeline…sadly we live in the one where they take down fanmade mods.
Such a shame.
I have a bad feeling about this, like they are just porting the mobile versions with a “HD” label slap on it.
Wonder if they cuck some of the scenes and missions.
I think the chainsaw mission from the Vice City will be ripped straight out.
Modders attempting to add it back in will be branded members of the KKK.
more importantly for me.. music! had to mod mobile vice city to add michael jackson song back and others they cut
Rampages will go away.
i bet they gonna port the mobile version and remove half the songs and censor it.
I hope they do that. Imagine butthurt.
I would suggest waiting for user reviews or a review site that you can actually trust.
its funny all you people flaming taketwo but you all end buying the games they release
We what???
Not when i can pirate it. You are assuming a lot.
Show me your gaming library f*g and i will show you mine and see who bought anything from take-two “f*g” you people are hilarious you say 1 things and up doing the opposite
take it easy freind did get under your skin did take-two steal your money hahahahaha “f*g”
And to think that once upon a time i loved rockstar games 🙁 they were at their peak at the 6th consoles generation.
Are you sure about mobile versions using unreal engine?
wow you sure are mad about video games
Is almost like he cares about his hobby.
Is almost like he’s a raging anti-semite
as everyone should be at this point
? you are a schizo, tell me how your answer has any relation with what i said.
Video games are literal toys and this man is blaming his toy hobbies on Jews…
If anything he is just calling out the greedy practice of the company…but that’s common, almost a mandate in AAA gaming
He literally blamed it on Jews…
Using a stereotype as a descriptor doesnt make you a “ist”. Grow up and get over your persecution and victim complex, you are falling into another stereotype and you didnt even notice.
Using a jewish stereotype literally does make you an anti-semite, yeah…that’s kind of anti-semitism 101 my dude
Leave twitter…for your own sake. If you dont know how generalizations work, that’s on you.
And you should read a book
FFS you said it yourself, is a stereotype…not to be taken seriously by definition, any mature person knows that, grow up, child.
People form their perceptions of the world from stereotypes. This is literally racism 101, I don’t know what else to tell you. Get off 4chan, read more books.
You read as a snowflake, i dont know in what kind of clown world do you live in, but anything and anyone has a form of caricature or stereotype expression, deal with it, or since when anything related to the jews or judaism has a free card from criticism?
Here’s a hint, we won the WW2, we dont live in the 1900s anymore, you should be happy.
You are fishing for things to get offended by, Karen.
I’m just smarter than you and more well-read, its okay, no need to get upset about being an anti-semite apologist.
You are the full stereotype it seems…you should be more humble…you read as a supremacist with that attitude, be worry of not falling into the same trappings of the past.
No its okay I just know I’m better than you because I’ve read like 3 books and don’t use worn out meme words to insult others. Its okay little boy, you’ll grow up some day. Or probably not.
Is like im answering to a stone wall at this point, you are a waste of time.
My thoughts exactly. Its been fun. Don’t forget to unbookmark 4chan!
also look up what an anti-semite apologist is…because thats you bro
Wannabe Nazi
Jews are literally to blame. The ruining of Western video games is one small symptom of critical theory; which was a political strategy developed by Marxist jews.
big ol’ piece of sh*t here
you say they didnt ruin gaming?
f*k off N*zi
as everyone should be at this point.
Nazis out in full force today
ok
That Unreal Engine part is kind of misleading.
If they’re doing it in UE, then it’ll be a Remake. But the leaked doc says remastered.
So …. I guess its using UE4 as a frontend for various UI elements for the trilogy’s bundle/common launch menu.
Grand Theft Auto Trilogy remasters are being developed by Rockstar Dundee, which previously worked on the Halo: The Master Chief Collection under the name Ruffian Games.
The same devs used UE4 frontend for the MCC collection’s UI and menus previously.
There even used to be a common UE4 error in Halo MCC for PC.
Hence, this remaster is not actually being made in Unreal Engine.
Its the same ol’ GTA III,VC, SA code made using Renderware. Just spruced up a bit. Similar to Halo MCC.
But I thought MCC used the renderer from Saber Interactive’s engine because Saber did the upgrades…
When i play MCC i always got UE4 error and crashes. I gave up and never continue playing it again.
It will be censored and will lack a ton of music tracks because of expired licenses.
Just find the reverse engineered versions of 3 and Vice City that 2K took down like the absolute c*nts they are and play those instead.
Mafia DEmake-like flop incoming.
Nobody cares for this trash, only f4g admins at GTAForums.
Its most likely a port of the mobile versions to the Nintendo switch, which has already been rumored for a while now, but taketwo love money so they will throw it on PC to have the dum dums buy it as well. terrible PC port of an old mobile game incoming
If it was a single game i’d have some hope. But 3… this will just be a copy and paste hack job. I’d be surprised aF if it’s anything more then some piss poor color tweaks and AA.
The GTA trilogy remastered!?
Features :
– 1920×1080 support (1280×720 coming later in a DLC)
– lots of extra skins
– Use your own pronouns!
– ALL sensitive content removed
?
Me : OMG! I can get all of this crap for free??
Rockstar : Nope! It’ll be available at the insane price of $99,99!
Me : OMG! I can’t wait to be scammed ! Aaaw Rockstar, you’re the best dudes!??
PC versions exist you know? Those are better than PS2 and much better in controls.
Steam versions suck, I was talking about retail ISOs.
How bout screw this sh*t and give us GTA 6 already!!
