What’s the Buzz?
The recent announcement of the upcoming Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition included GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas, but it made a few crucial omissions.
The Missing Meta Comment
Typically, Rockstar Games includes a meta comment in their archives for each game, providing players with clues about upcoming plans. However, San Andreas is notably missing this comment in the latest release, sparking speculation about its future in the Quest catalog.
Possible Explanations
The absence of the meta comment could mean several things:
1. Quest Exclusive
San Andreas may be destined to remain a Quest-exclusive title, similar to Vice City: Stories and Liberty City Stories.
2. Delayed Release
Rockstar Games may have decided to delay the Quest release of San Andreas to optimize it further or address technical issues.
3. Quest Limitations
The technical limitations of the Quest may have posed significant challenges in porting San Andreas without compromising the game’s quality.
Conclusion
While the missing meta comment leaves room for uncertainty, it’s clear that Rockstar Games has not yet revealed their definitive plans for GTA: San Andreas on the Quest. Fans will have to wait patiently for further updates from the developer.
Additional Speculations
- Some believe the absence of San Andreas on Quest could pave the way for a standalone release of the game in the future.
- Others speculate that Rockstar Games may be planning a GTA: San Andreas Remastered Edition for next-gen consoles and PC, which could potentially include Quest support.
Whatever the case may be, GTA: San Andreas remains a highly anticipated title for Quest users, and its ultimate fate is still shrouded in mystery.
