Grand Theft Auto V Legacy News

The release of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition was supposed to be a happy event celebrating the remasters of three of the best open-world games ever made, but shortly after that release the Rockstar Games Launcher went down and GTA Trilogy PC was pulled from sale - which is apparently due to "unintentionally included" files that may have been songs.

The remastered Grand Theft Auto Trilogy - GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas - was released yesterday and things didn't go very well at all for the PC version. Aside from raising eyebrows due to these PS2 games having higher system requirements than last year's Red Dead Redemption 2, the Rockstar Games Launcher - which the remastered trilogy is exclusive to after Rockstar pulled the originals from Steam - went down immediately and was offline for a day.

At the same time, Rockstar also pulled the GTA Trilogy PC version from sale without explanation - which it now says is because it is removing "files unintentionally included in these versions".

It's Thursday, GTA Online fans, so we all know what that means. The open-world game's latest weekly patch has dropped with a new round of bonus rewards, GTA Online prize ride, discounts, and more. The official newswire post from Rockstar isn't here just yet, but fans are reporting on what's new, so let's take a look.

This week's bonus rewards go to GTA Online's Deluxo races - a series of four stunt races based on the retro-style Deluxo vehicle class, called Cresting, Raton Race, Stadium Flyover, and Techno. While this week's update is live, you'll be able to grab three times the usual $GTA and RP for completing these. Act Three of the Doomsday Scenario and Special Vehicle Work also carry bonus rewards this week, with these handing out double the regular in-game bucks and RP. There's additionally a 50% speed boost on bunker research this week.

The latest Prize Ride is the Sultan RS Classic - a two-door sports sedan that comes as part of the Los Santos Tuners update - which you can nab if you rack up 12 top-five spots in the Street Race series.

GTA Trilogy seemingly pulled on PC as Rockstar launcher goes down

Tired of the Cayo Perico heist? You and I both, buddy. Thankfully if you want to make some decent profit this month Rockstar has kicked off Heist month, a limited-time event that applies bonus rewards to a selection of classic heists. If you're looking for some extra justification to jump back to some older content, or just want to add some variation to your nefarious routine, this is a great opportunity to do so without feeling like you're being inefficient.

Remaining active throughout the month of November, players who complete any of the five original heists (The Fleeca Job, Prison Break, Humane Labs Raid, Series A Funding, The Pacific Standard Job) will earn double the usual cash reward. If you’ve got nothing planned this weekend, completing all but The Fleeca Job before November 8 will earn an extra $500,000.

As an extra bonus to sweeten the deal, completing The Fleeca Job will earn you special livery for the Übermacht Cypher, so petrol heads will want to snatch that before it’s gone!

It's Thursday, and GTA Online fans know what that means - it's time for the open-world game's next batch of weekly updates, discounts, and bumped-up rewards. As ever, fans have been checking out what's new in this week's update ahead of Rockstar Games' official newswire post later ontoday, so let's see what's now live.

First up, Tez2 reports that this week brings go karts to GTA Online's Race Creator - the game's tool for, surprise surprise, creating races. This lets players put together their own custom races across land, sea, and air types (I think we can safely assume go karts would be best suited to the former), and different modes - so, you can pick standard A-to-B style events, rally races, non-contact options, and so on. There are plenty other modifiers you can tweak, too - Rockstar has a handy guide to using the Race Creator at that link.

Elsewhere this week, there are double $GTA and RP rewards across four modes: original heists (presumably the ones that arrived with the initial Heists update back in 2015), auto shop deliveries, exotic exports, and motor wars. There's also double RP up for grabs for the Humane Labs last team standing mode.

Another Thursday, another fresh batch of new content for GTA Online. The multiplayer game's latest weekly update has now dropped and, ahead of Rockstar Games' official Newswire post, which will arrive later today, fans have been giving us an idea of what's now live in-game - so, let's take a look at this week's offerings.

Tez2 has shared a rundown of what's hit GTA Online for this week's update on Twitter, revealing that there are bonus rewards to be had on some of the game's spooky season-themed modes. The Halloween adversary modes are offering double GTA$ and RP rewards this week, along with the alien survival missions, too. Meanwhile, the Slasher adversary mode is offering triple rewards this week across the Bunker, Diamond, and Missile Base locations.

The latest GTA Online prize ride is the Tailgater S sports sedan, which you can nab if you come in the top two spots in street races for four days on the trot. The GTA Online podium vehicle of the week is the Lurcher hearse, while the test track cars are the Pariah, Vectre, and Comet S2.
