The year 2021 will mark the 20th anniversary of one of the most popular editions of the Grand Theft Auto franchise. GTA III came out in October 2001 and soon became a blockbuster hit. It still remains one of the highest-rated games of all time. Naturally, Rockstar Games wanted to pay tribute to the title for completing two decades of its release.

Rockstar Wire had a host of new announcements for fans across the board. Ranging from Grand Theft Auto titles to Red Dead Redemption, a host of new content is arriving at the titles. The highlight of the announcement was definitely “the expanded and enhanced versions of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online are arriving on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S with new features and more, on November 11th, 2021.”

Fortunately, the treats are not limited to the lucky few with a PlayStation 5 or the Xbox Series X|S. Rockstar is also going to celebrate GTA III’s 20th anniversary by releasing “fun surprises.”
