Classic GTA Games Coming to Netflix

Remastered GTA Trilogy: A Look Back

We previously reported on Rockstar's intention to remaster GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas for new consoles and mobile devices back in 2021. The remastered versions, released as Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition in November that year, were available on Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch. However, despite some parts looking satisfactory, the games were riddled with bugs, broken graphics, and other glitches. The problems were so severe that Rockstar Games had to apologize and offer free copies of the original games on PC.

Netflix’s New GTA Ports

On November 29, Netflix announced that Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas—all originally released on the PS2 between 2001 and 2004—would be available on mobile phones starting on December 14. To play these GTA ports, you need to be a Netflix subscriber.

Spotting the Changes

Comparing the screenshots of the new Netflix ports to the current console and PC versions of the GTA Trilogy reveals some changes. These alterations are particularly noticeable in GTA: Vice City, where the colors appear to have been toned down and the overall image looks darker, more akin to the original PS2 version.

Visual Tweaks in the Remastered Version

Upon closer inspection, you can see the remastered Vice City Definitive Edition models and textures, suggesting that the game is still that version. However, it appears that some visual settings have been tweaked, including the fog, potentially to enhance these new Netflix ports.

Final Thoughts

These minor changes seem to bring the remastered versions closer to the original look of these beloved games. As such, they might be worth checking out once they arrive on mobile devices.
