The project was first revealed back in 2021 when Meta announced it would be attempting to make a VR remake ofGrand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Described as “a project many years in the making”, the VR remake has never received any gameplay footage or a release date but that now doesn’t seem to be a problem.
The news comes after a Meta spokesperson spoke to IGN and confirmed the project was now on indefinite hold.
