Despite featuring who is arguably the most annoying NPC in the existence of humankind, Roman Bellic,GTA IVis considered to be one of the best video games of all time, at least on Metacritic.
According to the criticallyacclaimed score onMetacritic,Grand Theft Auto IVhas scored an almighty 98 on both PS3 and Xbox 360 with its PC release coming in at an impressive 90. So it stands to reason that developer Rockstar Games might one day consider releasing a remaster ofGTA IVwhich originally launched in 2008. After all, the developer had recently released the port of 2010’sRed Dead Redemptionon PS4 and Nintendo Switch.

That being said, there is still reason to believe that aGTA IVport or remaster is coming. Back in July 2022, there were reports thatRockstar Games had cancelled plansto remasterRed Dead RedemptionandGTA IV, one of which we now know has been released.
Furthermore, in July this year, while Rockstar Games parent company Take-Two Interactive didn’t outright mention any particular games, it was claimed that it plans torelease two “previously-released titles”. This was before the release of theRed Dead Redemptionport. Both games were allegedly intended to release during the fiscal year 2024 which ends at the end of March next year.
We do know that Rockstar Games will be releasing thefirst official trailer forGTA VIearly next month, but it has previously been suggested that the game won’t be released until sometime between 2024 to 2025. So it might make sense for Take-Two Interactive to release a port ofGTA IVto fill that gap, especially if it’s a port of minimal effort and not a proper remaster.
In the meantime, if you want to playGTA IVin its current form, it is available on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. It’s also backwards compatible with Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, as well as its two fantastic expansions,The Lost and the Damned, andThe Ballad of Gay Tony.
