Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition was one of the worst-kept secrets in gaming, with numerous leaks revealing the collection well before Rockstar Games made the official announcement. But even though Rockstar Games has finally announced Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition, there's still a lot that fans don't know about it. This includes how much the trilogy will cost, and if a recent leak is to be believed, it could be pretty expensive.
Retailer Base.com is accepting pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition, and the prices listed suggest that the game will retail for full price. What this means is that it's possible that Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One versions of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition will cost $60, whereas the next-generation versions on PS5 and Xbox Series X will cost $70. This has not been confirmed by Rockstar Games at the time of this writing, and it's entirely possible that these are simply placeholder prices, and so fans should keep that in mind.
While the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy games will have some improvements, fans are used to remasters selling at budget prices. For example, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy had a budget price when it launched, and it included significant graphical upgrades compared to the original versions of the game.
It's possible that the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy games will all be getting similar visual upgrades, but that remains to be seen. It's just as possible that the games won't look much different than the HD versions released for PS4 a few years back, and so fans should brace themselves for that reality. Ultimately, until Rockstar Games itself decides to show Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition in action, all fans can do is speculate.
Despite announcing Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition and confirming that it's releasing by the end of the year, Rockstar has yet to release a proper trailer for the game. The latest rumors suggest that the Grand Theft Auto 3 20th anniversary on October 22 could be when the trailer for the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy drops, but again, nothing official has been announced by Rockstar, so fans should take this information with a grain of salt.
Rumors also point to the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy release date being November 11, but fans will just have to wait and see if there's any truth to those claims.
Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition is in development for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and mobile devices.
