Rockstar apologizes for GTA Trilogy issues, makes the old versions of GTA available again

The release of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition has not gone well. In fact, we have separately described it as a “mess” and a “trainwreck” that has left fans pining for the original versions, which were delisted when the trilogy came out. Today those fans got some good news: Rockstar is bringing the classic versions back.

“Firstly, we want to sincerely apologize to everyone who has encountered issues playing these games,” Rockstar wrote. “The Grand Theft Auto series—and the games that make up this iconic trilogy—are as special to us as we know they are to fans around the world. The updated versions of these classic games did not launch in a state that meets our own standards of quality, or the standards our fans have come to expect.”
