Recently, Rockstar Games announced the launch of a remastered collection called Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy later this year. The Trilogy will contain GTA III, GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas.

The legends of GTA

Players from the early 2000s will be very familiar with the name Grand Theft Auto (GTA). It was a one of a kind game that paved the way for many open-world games. But the first original version wasn't the reason behind its success. Grand Theft Auto was originally published by BMG Interactive in October 1997. Afterwards, Rockstar Games took over and launched Grand Theft Auto II in 1999. Both versions got a lot of mixed reviews but were commercially successful. But the entry that changed the whole gaming era was 'Grand Theft Auto III.'

GTA III came out in 2001 with 3D gameplay and became a turning point for the franchise. Afterwards, the developer released even more upgraded versions of GTA with a better gaming experience and graphics. GTA Vice City (2002) and GTA San Andreas (2004) followed and were also very successful. They then released the sequels GTA IV(2008) and GTA V(2013). GTA V was the series’ latest release, which earned billions and broke several sales records.
