The Grand Theft Auto Trilogy wasn’t in the best of shape when it originally launched, but the development team has released multiple updates since then.

With this in mind, the game has now received a surprise update. The catch is that it only seems to be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Interestingly, it adds a “Classic Lighting mode” that brings certain aspects of the game in line with the original titles.
