GTA fans should finally be able to properly enjoy Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy on PC, without having to go through the studio’s horrible launcher. The game is expected to land Thursday, January 19 on the Epic Games Store and on Steam. We hope it has been improved!
fans of the saga GRand Theft Auto don’t have much to eat right now! After a GTA V released almost ten years ago and an announcement of GTA VI – of which a pirated copy has leaked on the Internet – which is desired, players must be satisfied with regular updates on GTA Online. To make the wait less unbearable, Rockstar Games has decided to make Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition available on PC. In any case, this is what well-known leaker Billbilkun, a regular at announcements revolving around PlayStation Plus, says on Twitter. According to its sources, the remaster including GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas, the three most popular games in the franchise, will arrive on the Epic Games Store on January 19 at 5 p.m. A news that agrees with the new Steam API update, which suggests that the game will also be coming to the platform soon. Everything seems to fit!
Remaster GTA on PC: a game that greatly divides fans
Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition was already released on November 11, 2021 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch. On PC, its distribution was until now limited to the Rockstar store (only available on Windows), which had greatly chilled players, the launcher being “renowned” for its many bugs, its inefficient support and its recurring connection problems. . Adding the remaster would therefore be a good way to boost sales of the game… provided you have improved it.

On paper, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition has something to seduce. Indeed, it offers improved graphics running on the Unreal Engine and slightly modernized gameplay. In the end, the game was a real cold shower and was heavily criticized at the time of its release for its lack of ambition, its numerous bugs and its lack of stability on PC. A reception much lower than that of the other games in the saga! Also, players are hoping that it will include a major update, including the correction of characters with a cartoonish look – there is really a problem with the joints of the bodies -, a correct LOD loading and bug fixes. Without that, not sure that players rush on it, even if the title should benefit from a discount of 50% off its price for the first week of launch.
