From the trilogy's main web page, you can further open each individual games page to see their respective details and sizes.
- GTA 3 - 8GB
- GTA Vice City - 14GB
- GTA San Andreas - 27GB
Compared to their original placements on the PC and Xbox, GTA 3 took almost 1GB, GTA Vice City took 1.6GB, and GTA San Andreas took 4.76GB.
The new sizes put them more in line with modern releases, and while we only caught a quick glimpse of the remaster in a new trailer shared by the company, it already looks like the trilogy will be worth a replay after all these years.
Aside from polishing up the graphics and audio quality for the games, there has also been a plethora of quality of life changes to update the outdated controls of the previous games, which were the biggest complaints from fans who would purchase the games on PC or console.
Rockstar has updated how the games can be played to fit modern gaming styles so that there it is easier to get into the games without learning the old controls.
