Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, a remastered collection of Rockstar’s three genre-defining crime classics has been released with a fresh lick of Unreal engine paint and overhauled controls, but also bringing along with it some notable content cuts at least in terms of its downsized soundtrack listings and slightly smaller selection of cheats. How impactful are any of these changes to the three experiences? Well, we don’t really know yet, since we only got our hands on the collection of games when you did – after it went live on the PSN store earlier today.
Thus our review of GTA Trilogy is still a way off; we’ll need to play though all three of the games so at this point we’re unlikely to have finalised impressions until sometime next week. In the meantime, you can watch the opening minutes of the Definitive Editions of Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City, and San Andreas in 4K60 in the clips on this page.
Be sure to also check out this comparison video between the original games and their definitive versions, as well as gameplay footage on Nintendo Switch. Now if you need me, I’ll be in 2001.
