All the buzz in GTA news lately is around the recent announcement by Take-Two Interactive that Rockstar Games is working on "new, exciting projects". Of course, the bulk of the speculation is directed at what their next major game might turn out to be, however the word "project s" suggests that the developer is spinning multiple plates at the same time.
Of course, the main guesses are GTA 6 and a third Red Dead game (everyone seems to forget that Red Dead Revolver was a thing), however some fans are still holding out hope for another Manhunt, or possibly a follow-up to L.A. Noire. The chances of another Midnight Club or Max Payne game are thin, but the possibility is there.
However, looking at AAA game release trends nowadays, a seldom mentioned option has also been added to the mix — GTA remasters. With the exclusion of V and maybe IV (debatable), all Grand Theft Auto games are pretty dated in terms of visuals.
It was V that really defined the franchise as a kind of visual benchmark, as none of the older games were particularly extraordinary in terms of graphics when they launched. GTA IV especially was often criticized for its graphics when it first launched.
However, the fact that there is still a sizable market for the 3D era masterpieces of GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas on mobile platforms and even the current-gen consoles proves that these games are still sought after.
