The GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition PC version remains offline and unplayable for players who purchased the remastered collection.
The Rockstar Games Launcher app has made its return today since it went offline last night. Without the app online, players were unable to launch any of their already-purchased titles through the service for Windows PC users.
Though fans can make use of the launcher app now, the remastered GTA trilogy still can’t be purchased or played.
“The Rockstar Games Launcher is now online, but GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition is unavailable to play or purchase as we remove files unintentionally included in these versions. We’re sorry for the disruption and hope to have correct ones up soon.”
