GTA: The Trilogy has received many negative reviews (including from us), thanks to a lot of bugs and some bad publishing decisions…

While the community was left with many complaints about GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition, the enthusiasm for the game waned a lot after its release on 11 November. Unfortunately, in addition to the bugs that litter the program, the developer and publisher have taken some steps that have managed to alienate a significant portion of fans, as we reported.

Now RockStar has reversed the decision it announced weeks ago. “While one of the goals of the Definitive Editions was to allow players to enjoy these games on modern platforms for many years to come, we also understand that some of you would still like to have the previous classic versions available for purchase,” the studio explained in a statement on its website.

RockStar also has a surprise for GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition, where users can download the original versions of the trilogy at no extra cost. The developer is reopening this avenue for all users who want to buy the first editions of the titles, rewarding those who have already invested in GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition.

Following the remaster, RockStar apologises for the bugs that have been encountered in recent days and says it is working to fix them as quickly as possible: “We have ongoing plans to address the technical issues and to improve each game going forward. With each planned update, the games will reach the level of quality that they deserve to be”. The studio also announced a new update focused on bug fixes that will arrive “in the coming days” for all versions of GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition.

So we’ll see how RockStar manages to regain users’ trust, as GTA: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition’s graphical problems have been the subject of much criticism online. However, this is not the only core of the complaints, as the game has also annoyed the community with other issues, such as the RockStar Launcher crash, which prevented a large number of PC players from playing the game.
