Grand Theft Auto 4 PS4 Port Might be Revealed
Grand Theft Auto 4 PS4 Port might be revealed with fans discover the Rockstar Games support website now lists the 2008 title for the PlayStation 4, a platform it is not currently available on.
Is Grand Theft Auto 4 PS4 Port Coming?
Initially released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2008, Grand Theft Auto 4 is often considered one of the greatest entries in the series. Despite the fact that it is now 17 years old, fans are still playing Grand Theft Auto 4 regularly, but on much older hardware (or PC). While Xbox users can play on the newest generation of consoles thanks to its backward compatibility, fans of the series have been calling for Rockstar to remaster Grand Theft Auto 4 for years now. A full-blown remaster is unlikely, but evidence of a potential port to newer consoles, such as the PlayStation 5 via forward compatibility from the PS4, is now seeming increasingly likely.
Earlier this year, a trusted insider claimed that Rockstar Games has been working on a current-gen port of Grand Theft Auto 4 for over a year now, with a release possibly coming later this year. This claim has yet to be verified by an official source, but now fans have discovered that the Rockstar support website lists the PlayStation 4 as a platform for Grand Theft Auto 4, leading to further speculation that a re-release could be imminent. Of course, this could also just be an honest mistake, but given that it’s only been a couple of months since rumors began circulating, this would certainly be pretty coincidental timing for such a mistake.
With Grand Theft Auto 6’s release date now just 10 months away, Rockstar Games likely has the majority of its resources focused on its next big release. When the studio published Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition in 2021, it outsourced the development to Grove Street Games. For now, everything remains merely speculation and rumors, but there’s the possibility that the studio has once again outsourced work on a Grand Theft Auto 4 port to another studio, given that it is currently developing one of the biggest video game releases of all time.
