The GTA Trilogy reportedly killed the remasters of GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption
Before the official reveal of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, fans feverishly shared rumors about its existence. The excitement at that time made sense considering the collection was to touch up some of the most beloved entries in the series. As soon as the collection came out, however, that excitement immediately turned into horror as players discovered a product riddled with technical problems and baffling design choices. This naturally led to a massive amount of backlash from both fans and critics. In fact, the backlash may have influenced Rockstar Games’ future plans. A recent Kotaku report suggests that Rockstar has scrapped potential remasters of GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption precisely because of GTA: The Trilogy’s disastrous reception.
