This would be interesting, we will see is Unreal finally good enough for big streaming environments, it was always Unreals flaw, Crytech and others advantage, i remember when some companies tried to make MMOs Unreal 3 technology and it was very problematic, technology wasnt ready, it was made for Gears of War style of games.

That was a long time ago. Epic worked a lot on Unreal Engine 4 and 5, especially with a focus on large busy worlds, as they needed that for Fortnite as well.

These games are part of my childhood, I'll be sad if they perform like crap because of unreal: hoping not!

IF and only if the soundtrack is the same or if we can somehow replace it with the original

Let's see the list of what will be censored/cut because "iT's CuRrEnT yEaR!!11".

What I would really like to see is LC and VC on the same map. I know, that doesn't really make sense considering the climate, but both maps felt just a little too small.
Los Santos was a good size - not too big, not too small.
GTA3 was censored almost immediately for excessive gore. If anything, the series has become more grungy, offensive, and violent. Depending how they remaster things, it might only get "worse".

hope so.
San andreas with updated graphics FTW!!

These will probably release for Steam (Deck) and for the Switch, sounds like another money-printing machine, but I won't complain 😀

Vice City was my favorite GTA and probably in my top 5 games of all time.

Unreal??? Why? This makes no sense, rockstar have their own engine and tons of talented people who are well versed in using the tools at hand. Unreal just doesn't make sense to me.
It does say "remaster" and not "remake" so this tells me it "should" be true to the OG source material.
All they need to do is polish up the textures, add in a more fleshed out graphics menu (DX12/Vulkun support), enable proper controller support (OG's are pretty bad for this), pay for the rights to OG music and radio stations, add in achievements, and enable full mod support. Do this for all 3 games, release them all as a package. If they release these individually for full price they will not be getting my money.

Yes but in rage engine done by rockstar not unreal.

Don't expect any ground breaking top tier visuals.
Rockstar Dundee has 27 employees (Wiki, 2019) so 3 big games like these are too much for them I would say.
+ They are releasing this on everything.
Maybe they have some support from other R* studios/3rd party but the dev cycle is not long 1-1.5 years at top max.
It's already said that visuals are a mix bag + they will had some 'current era" features and improvements.
I would be not sprise if they used community mods, but the question is, will PC ports finally be FIXED/DONE RIGHT?
Fans manage to fixed them/reverse engineering those games.
I got feeling that this collection will be a mess.

Vice city remaster please

Why would Rockstar use someone elses engine when they have a perfectly good game engine of their own?
Dimitrios1983
Am I the only one here that really wants a remaster or the game called THE THING or that Jurassic Park game TRESPASSER?
