The trilogy brings together three PlayStation 2 era classics. The remastered series has made quite a lot of notable changes and there’s a lot to talk about here. Here are 10 things you should know before making a nostalgia-driven purchase.
Visuals
The updated visuals of The Trilogy are its major improvement. The whole point of the GTA Trilogy is its updated visuals. Its updated visuals modernize the entire experience, while keeping the essence of the game the same.
There are multiple new lighting enhancements, environmental upgrades, high-resolution textures, detailed characters and vehicles, increased draw distances, and much more; the trailer definitely shows multiple notable visual changes in the game.
Visual enhancements
Every single thing in the game, from characters to vehicles to buildings to weapons, now supports higher resolution texture. The definitive edition also features greater detailed vegetation and environment upgrades. The lighting system, as mentioned above, has been completely transformed.
There are enhanced shadows and reflections with positive weather effects. And the games are expected to look absolutely stunning. However, all these changes have not affected the classic GTA feel and aesthetic of the games somehow, which is truly impressive.
Gunplay changes
Rockstar confirms that the remastered games will have GTA 5-style controls for easy aiming and firing. In combat, the controls will be updated for shooting and targeting.
Quality of life improvements
Now, players will be able to retry a failed mission immediately, which is a big relief for most of the players out there. Also, there will be updated support for trophies and achievements. Players can now set waypoints on the mini-map, there are updated weapons as well as a radio station selection wheel as well.
