With Grand Theft Auto VI still over a year away, Take-Two Interactive is reportedly planning to bridge the gap with four remastered classics. This move would give fans fresh ways to revisit Rockstar’s iconic catalog while waiting for the next big release.
Which Games Could Return?
While nothing is confirmed, strong rumors and logical guesses point to:
- Grand Theft Auto IV – Long overdue for a modern upgrade
- Max Payne 1 & 2 – Already confirmed for remakes
- Bully – A cult favorite begging for a revival
- Red Dead Redemption 2 or Midnight Club – Potential dark horses
Take-Two’s wording—“four new iterations of previously released titles”—leaves room for remasters, remakes, or even simple re-releases like Red Dead Redemption’s 2023 port.

Why This Makes Sense
Rockstar has a history of re-releasing classics (GTA: The Trilogy, RDR1), and with GTA 6’s delay to May 2026, there’s a clear window to capitalize on nostalgia. A GTA IV remaster, in particular, would excite fans who consider it the series’ narrative peak.
Fan Reactions: Hopeful But Cautious
After GTA: The Trilogy’s rocky launch, some fans are wary:
- “Just don’t outsource it to a mobile studio this time.”
- *”If *Bully* gets a remake, I’ll lose my mind.”*
- “Please be more than just a resolution bump.”

What’s Next?
If Take-Two follows through, announcements could drop later this year. For now, GTA 6 remains slated for May 2026 on PS5 and Xbox—with PC still unconfirmed.
