Rockstar Games partnered with Double Eleven, a studio known for its work on titles such as Minecraft Dungeons and Prison Architect, to bring this remastered edition to life. PC players can expect enhancements tailored specifically for their hardware. Notable features include support for Nvidia DLSS, AMD FSR 3.0, and ultra-wide monitors, ensuring the game performs optimally on a variety of setups.
One notable aspect of the upcoming release is it’s surprisingly low storage requirement. The game will occupy only 12 GB on a PC, making it accessible for gamers with limited space. While the game will run on a hard drive, using a solid-state drive (SSD) is recommended for optimal performance.
