While we continue to witness the still mouth-opening success that trails behind the latest installment for Grand Theft Auto, there happens to be new information regarding the first two entries of the franchise. Recently, users online have unearthed that both Grand Theft Auto and Grand Theft Auto 2 both have a new rating on the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB).
However, the two ratings that were discovered are shown to be for Sony’s preceding console, PlayStation 3. Weirdly enough to see especially how close the industry is toward approaching the next-generation of console hardware this coming holiday season. The ratings were established by Rockstar Games’ parent company Take-Two Interactive with a release date aimed for today.
With the parent company’s European offices filing the rating, it is expected that the rating were made at midnight in its respected time zone earlier last night: which explains for the release date for April 30 and just holds as the date it was established. Checking the PlayStation Store, both games are listed, but for their respected PlayStation version from more than two decades ago.
Perhaps this will potentially segue to an updated version of the two classic titles for the PlayStation 4 as Rockstar has released some of its most memorable titles for the current system. Dating back to 2016, the company shipped both 2003’s Manhunt and 2005’s The Warriors to PlayStation 4 abruptly. SO there is the chance this is another instance for fans to take on the inaugural entries from Rockstar Games.
This listing also comes following a separate rating for Grand Theft Auto III that was uncovered back during September in Australia. As of reporting, Rockstar Games nor its parent company Take-Two Interactive has yet to comment on the recently found ratings and the previous discovery for the third mainline installment.
In a separate report that broke out earlier this year, Rockstar Games Co-Founder Dan Houser shared that he will be stepping down from his position in the middle of March. You can read the full report by heading here.
What do you think could arise from these new ratings for the classic titles?
