If it's a free upgrade, perhaps it won't be as big of a deal, but if it's a premium experience, it may lead to some controversy. Rockstar hasn't confirmed pricing details on the new version of the game, but the lack of any compelling new enhancements or additions has made some wary of the game.
The lack of information about the new Grand Theft Auto 5 remaster has led to fans being a bit annoyed. The game was expected to release next week on November 11, but will now release on an unspecified date in March 2022. It's likely this was a scheduled tweet or just general confusion from whoever runs the account, but the game is still slated for next year. Ironically, the delay for the game was announced at a PlayStation event. In a now-deleted tweet, PlayStation announced an offer for players to get free money in GTA Online if they log in at least once a month before the new remaster and noted it's still releasing this year. Still, even though Rockstar's new remaster of GTA 5 was delayed to 2022, PlayStation is still tweeting as if it's around the corner.

The new remasters have been heavily rumored since the start of 2021, but Rockstar only made it official just weeks before its release date. The collection will give Grand Theft Auto 3, Vice City, and San Andreas a new coat of paint and improved controls to make them feel more accessible to a modern audience. In October, Rockstar confirmed that the GTA trilogy will release digitally on November 11 on consoles and PC. Rockstar has opted to release a completely different game in November with the new GTA trilogy, which will take GTA 5's previous release date. A recent tweet from the official PlayStation Twitter account maintains that Grand Theft Auto 5's upcoming remaster is still releasing this month, despite it officially being delayed.
