This week, Kotaku reported Rockstar is working on remastered versions of Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, using Unreal Engine to create a mix of “new and old graphics”.
The news helps explain Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive’s recent GTA mod takedown spree – particular mods that recreated the games in question.
But it also helps explain why Rockstar nuked a San Andreas fan remake trailer in July 2020, too.
