Grand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy Reportedly Heading To Switch

Ever since the Nintendo Switch launched plenty have hoped for some sort of Grand Theft Auto port on the system, with plenty wondering whether Grand Theft Auto V would make its way to the hybrid system. However, now Kotaku has shared a report suggesting another long-rumoured release is on the way to Switch and other systems.

The report states that a GTA Remastered Trilogy is nearing the end of development, with Switch being a supported platform along with other consoles, PC and even mobile. The games included are Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, with the remaster project using a mix of new and old assets through Unreal Engine.

The studio reportedly in charge of the project is Rockstar Dundee, which was Ruffian Games prior to acquisition, a team with a track-record of major releases and remaster work. Like many projects it’s apparently endured some delays and changes of plan over the past year, with the report stating that a late October / November release is now on the cards. Supposedly the trilogy will come in one complete package, potentially as a download-only product.

In any case, this would be the first GTA release on Nintendo hardware since the very decent Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars way back on the DS, so it’d certainly be a notable arrival.
