The remastered versions of the classic GTA Trilogy games have just gotten a big update. It took 3 years and 1 day after launch but Rockstar Games have issued fixes to GTA The Trilogy Definitive Edition. This patch brings a highly requested change and many other improvements which we’ll share below with screenshots along with patch notes.
The update is now live on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and all PC storefronts: Steam, the Rockstar Games Launcher and the Epic Games Store. Rockstar have confirmed this is just for PC and current gen consoles. PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch will not get this update nor the features.
In terms of download size, the Rockstar Games Launcher version has the GTA San Andreas update at 18.44GB, GTA Vice City at 8.83GB and GTA III at 4.15GB. On PS5, Vice City’s update is 1.657GB. These numbers will vary depending which storefront you got it from. Most Requested Feature Added
Now for the main, requested addition to these highly controversial remasters. When this pack came out 3 years ago, fans complained about the lighting. When they released on mobile last year in partnership with Netflix, Rockstar Games announced a Classic Lighting mode. The studio said turning on this mode “restores the look and feel of the sky in the original games.” Lighting for the various areas e.g. Los Santos, San Andreas, Las Venturas etc are now as they were in the original.
Since these mobile ports came out in December last year, fans of these classic games have been asking Rockstar to bring over this feature to the console and PC versions. It has taken 11 months but it is finally here. In the pause menu, click options, then select the graphics tab. There, you’ll find the Classic Lighting setting with an Off or On option. By default, it is set to On.
