Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy, The Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch bundles three open world classics from the GTA range into one package, sitting as the modernised alternative to the original PS2 era releases. It goes up against other big sandbox series on Switch by offering sprawling cities, story driven missions and plenty of side activities, with the convenience of having all three games on one handheld friendly platform.

Who is this for?

Best suited to players who missed GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas, or want a portable way to revisit them. The “Definitive Edition” label points to updated visuals and quality of life tweaks compared with the originals, rather than a full remake, so expectations should be set accordingly. If you mainly play in short bursts, the Switch version’s pick up and play nature can suit the mission based structure well.

  • Three full games included, each with its own map, characters and storyline
  • Nintendo Switch format, geared towards handheld sessions as well as docked play
