How to get GTA Vice City next-gen edition explained

Back in 2021, the trio of GTA games released on the PS2 were remastered for modern consoles.

Labeled “Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Ultimate Version”, this title had some initial glitches, yet managed to rank as the 8th top-selling game in November 2021. Now, you can enjoy it not just on gaming platforms, but also on Netflix.

Approximately three years have passed, and it appears that the sequel in this trilogy is receiving another remaster. However, unlike previous times, this remaster seems to be a fan-created project.

Referred to as the next-generation version of GTA Vice City, its creators have recreated the environment and tale of Tommy Vercetti utilizing the Grand Theft Auto IV game engine.

It might not be available for long, so let’s take a look at where and how to download it.

What is the GTA Vice City next-gen edition?

GTA Vice City next-gen can be thought of as an enhancement made by enthusiasts known as Revolution Team, which essentially transforms Grand Theft Auto 4 into a platform for showcasing Vice City. It leverages the engine of GTA 4 to rebuild the locales, missions, and cutscenes from Vice City.

At first, playing the mod necessitated owning GTA 4. However, that’s no longer a requirement. Now, GTA Vice City next-gen stands independently on its own.

At the moment, the unofficial game port seems to be in a delicate situation. However, it appears that Take-Two Interactive, the company publishing Rockstar’s games, is taking steps. As of now, they have managed to remove Revolution Team’s YouTube channel.

The mod is currently available, but perhaps not for long.

So, how do we grab it before it’s too late?
