Evidence has appeared that points to a Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas anniversary rerelease.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is remembered as the best-selling PlayStation 2 game of all time. Many fans still cite it as the best game in the series, and it remains notorious for the ‘Hot Coffee’ mod controversy.
First off, an achievements list recently appeared for the game for Xbox 360, something which the game did not have in its original release.
The other thing that fans observed is that the game has been pulled in several platforms. It is no longer listed in Xbox 360’s Xbox Live Marketplace, under the Xbox Classics section. It is gone from European PSN, at least for the PlayStation 2 version. Finally, it is nowhere to be found on Steam.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was originally released on October 26, 2014. In four days’ time, the game will be celebrating its ten year anniversary.
Having the game delisted in all these platforms when the anniversary is coming up implies that Rockstar is planning a grand rerelease of the game. They may have been discreetly working on a remaster of sorts, perhaps to upgrade it from 6th generation to 7th generation consoles.
