As Grand Theft Auto 6 approaches its November 19 launch for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, Rockstar Games is offering discounts on several older Grand Theft Auto titles exclusively on PC via Steam. These deals are set to expire on the same day GTA 6 releases.
The available discounts include the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy, which bundles Grand Theft Auto 3, Vice City, and San Andreas, priced at $19.79/£19.79/€19.79—a 67% reduction from its usual price. Additionally, Grand Theft Auto 4: Complete Edition, featuring The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony expansions, is available for $6/£5.09/€6, a 70% discount.
According to Isthereanydeal.com, these represent some of the lowest prices ever seen for these titles. While the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition faced a rocky launch in 2021, it has since seen improvements, with Vice City and San Andreas holding "very positive" ratings on Steam. GTA 3 maintains a "mixed" rating, with some user reviews citing lingering issues and the game's age as contributing factors.
Grand Theft Auto 4: The Complete Edition, released in 2008, is noted for its shift in design and tone. It is currently priced at less than half that of the GTA Trilogy.
These promotions are currently exclusive to Steam, with no similar discounts appearing on PlayStation or Xbox stores. Notably, Grand Theft Auto 4 does not have a digital version on the PlayStation Store due to Sony's online store policies at the time of its release. The timing of these sales, ending precisely on the day Grand Theft Auto 6 is set to launch, suggests they are intended as pre-release promotions for PC players.
