The re3 project does not use any leaked source or copyrighted assets belonging to Rockstar or Take-Two. The company also claims that the creation and distribution of the rebuilt games "has caused, and is continuing to cause, irreparable harm to Take-Two." Take-Two also attempted to have the project removed from Github, and claimed that three of the developers involved "knowingly filed bad faith counter notifications that materially misrepresented the legality of their content, apparently claiming that because they allegedly 'reverse engineered' the Games' source code, they somehow cannot be liable for copyright infringement." without the authorisation or consent of Take-Two." In the suit, the company stated that it wants to "halt the activities of a group of individuals who have sought unlawfully to copy, adapt, and distribute to the public infringing source code for two classic GTA titles. The lawsuit takes aim at 14 programmers behind the re3 project, which offers "the fully reserved source code for GTA 3 and GTA VC", alongside ports of the titles for Switch, Wii U and Vita. But ahead of the launch, it’ll begin removing existing versions of each title from digital storefronts next week, so pick those up if you want them before you no longer have a chance.Take-Two Interactive is suing a team of developers that have reverse-engineered source code from Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City. Rockstar says that we’ll find out more about the collection of games in the coming weeks. It might feel weird to play a Grand Theft Auto game that doesn’t let you swap between protagonists, but the adventures of Claude, the silent protagonist in GTA III Tommy Vercetti in Vice City and CJ in San Andreas are still very much worth playing. In case you’re someone who grew up with Grand Theft Auto V (understandable, given it is eight years old) and haven’t had an easy way to play these earlier influential games, this seems like a great time to jump in. But it says that each of the games has gotten “across-the-board upgrades including graphical improvements and modern gameplay enhancements.” The company chose to take the faithful route for its remasters, leaving “the classic look and feel of the originals” how they were presented on PS2. The company hasn’t explicitly mentioned what kind of technical improvements were made, nor has it shared any footage yet. Pricing and release date info hasn’t been shared. It will come to iOS and Android in the first half of 2022.
The collection is coming to PC (via the Rockstar Games Launcher), PlayStation, Xbox, and, more surprisingly, the Nintendo Switch will host them, too. They’ll be released in a package called Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition. After several rumors, Rockstar Games has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City, and San Andreas are each getting HD remasters.
