The Rockstar Launcher was offline for a portion of the weekend.
Grand Theft Auto The Trilogy has been pulled for sale on Windows PC after a buggy launch that forced Rockstar Games to take its Rockstar Launcher offline for a portion of the weekend.
“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,” Rockstar said in a tweet. “We’re sorry for the disruption and hope to have correct ones up soon.”
While unconfirmed, some reports suggest that the unintentional files include unlicensed songs, while others still say unintentional developer comments embedded into code are to blame.
Players seem largely unhappy with The Trilogy‘s performance on both PC and consoles. Reports of lacklustre audio compression, lighting effects, rendering and more can be found all over social media.
