GTA 3, San Andreas, And Vice City Remasters Are Reportedly Coming This Year

Following numerous rumors, a report has verified that Rockstar is working on remasters for three of the most revered Grand Theft Auto games in the series. Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City remasters are all said to be in development for multiple platforms, from current-generation consoles to mobile devices.

Kotaku reports to have spoken to three sources involved with the project, each of whom says that this has been in the works at Rockstar for some time. At one point it was planned for the remaster collection to be offered to players who purchased the upcoming remaster for Grand Theft Auto V on Xbox Series X and PS5, but say that plans have since shifted to a standalone collection release. These remasters were also reportedly meant to come out earlier this year, but the COVID-19 pandemic delayed development.

Now Playing: The Evolution of Grand Theft Auto

The report states that the remasters will likely be bundled into a collection and sold digitally on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Google Stadia, and mobile. Some versions will be out this year while others, such as PC and mobile, might not be ready until 2022. The games are being remastered in the Unreal Engine, but care is apparently being taken to not stray from the overall look and feel of the PS2-era open-world games. The UI is being sharpened up for higher resolution displays, but the style will not be changing, according to the report.

Perhaps even more interestingly, the report states that Rockstar does have plans to pursue other remasters of its properties based on the sales of this collection. Kotaku writes that Rockstar is actively looking at a Red Dead Redemption remaster should it be satisfied with the performance of these three titles, although there’s no indication as to when that might be decided on.

The remasters are being handled by Rockstar Dundee, formerly known as Ruffian Games. The studio is familiar with open-world games, having developed Crackdown 2 and helped development on Crackdown 3. The report states that the newest Rockstar studio is also helping on development for Grand Theft Auto V for current-generation consoles.

Elijah Wood Tells The Story Of His Boisterous Fart On The Set Of Lord Of The Rings

During an episode of Hot Ones, Lord of the Rings star Elijah Wood shared a story of his first day of filming The Fellowship of the Ring. However, this first day was more memorable than most as he was a little flatulent on set.

While being interviewed for the spicy wing series, Wood recounts his memorable day. “It was the first day of filming, day one. The scene is, we are rolling down the hill after Merry and Pippin run into us, running away from farmer Maggot’s field, having stolen a bunch of vegetables. They bang into us. We roll down the hill. So it’s picking up that moment of falling down the hill and falling on top of each other in a very comedic way.

“And I think it was like, take two. And I had a–what is that a concussion fart?–a fart that is brought on by pressure, and yeah, I literally fell, [fart noise] and everybody burst out laughing. It’s very funny. It’s a hell of a way to start filming Lord of the Rings.”

The hobbits of the film have been talking a lot about their adventures in Middle-Earth. Billy Boyd–who played Pippin–recently revealed that the movie almost had a comedic nude scene in it. Additionally, Dominic Monaghan discussed his most difficult scene to film for the movies, which was the Gray Havens scene at the end of Return of the King, as it was emotionally-charged.

Amazon’s Lord of the Rings TV series is in production currently, and the show recently filled out its cast. Season 1 of the show reportedly cost Amazon over $450 million, but Amazon Studios boss Jennifer Salke said they’re spending the money on a “full season of a huge world-building show.”

Report: Grand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy Is In the Works, Including for Switch

A new report claims that a Grand Theft Auto remastered trilogy is on the way for multple platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, and it’s reportedly due out this Fall.

This news comes by way of Kotaku, which reports that it has learned from sources that Rockstar Games is remastering GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas, and that each game will be remastered in Unreal Engine. They will feature a mix of “new and old graphics,” the report reads.

According to the report, Rockstar’s Scottish branch, Rockstar Dundee, is leading the project and also working with the wider Rockstar company to develop the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S ports of GTA 5 scheduled for later this year.

Rumors of such a remastered trilogy have been around for years, and they gained even more traction when Rockstar began using DMCA takedowns to remove fan remasters .

One of Kotaku’s sources told the publication that they saw footage of the remasters running and that the graphics reminded them of a heavily-modded version of a classic GTA game. The UI is being remastered for each game too, although the classic style and design of each will remain the same. According to Kotaku, these titles are hoping to “stay true to the PS2-era GTA games as much as possible.”

Elsewhere in the report, Kotaku says these remasters were originally going to come packaged with the next-gen ports of GTA 5 and GTA Online as a bonus, but plans changed and the trilogy was converted into its own standalone package, set to be released earlier this year. Now, the remastered trilogy is due out this Fall, “around late October or early November,” according to Kotaku. The trilogy will be released on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, PC, Stadia, mobile devices, and on Switch.

However, Kotaku’s report states the console ports are being prioritized and that the PC and mobile ports could be released next year as a result.

While waiting to learn more about this remastered trilogy, check out this story about how a reverse-engineered GTA 3 and Vice City fan project was taken down earlier this year and then read about how a new Grand Theft Auto game is reportedly in development.
