We see Tommy Vercetti from GTA VC, Claude from GTA 3, and CJ from GTA SA feature in the hsort video, going through their storylines that most games must have played a thousand times. Not only the gameplay graphics have improved, the cutscenes also seem to have got all love from the developers.

Basically, everything in these classic games will look all shiny, brighter, and sharper than before. Players on the Sony PS5 and Xbox Series X can play it them in 4K at 60 fps, while PC users can take advantage of NVIDIA's DLSS system. Nintendo Switch users can use the gyroscope to controls aiming as well as use the touch screen to pan the camera.

GTA Trilogy The Definite Edition is releasing on PC, consoles and Nintendo Switch on November 11, replacing the older version of these titles on sale. Additionally, Android and iOS platforms will also get these games in early 2022, although we don't know whether the gameplay quality will remain the same as the PC version.
