Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – Final Edition unplayable on PC as Rockstar game launcher still stops working
If you purchased Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, you can’t really play it at the moment because the Rockstar Game Launcher is down and has been down for almost 20 hours.
As first reported by IGN, Rockstar’s own game launcher stopped working about 18 hours ago, and since that’s how PC players have to access the trilogy, they can’t play their new games. Rockstar has also pulled this trio from sale on PC so if you don’t already own it, it’s not something you can buy right now.
Service for Rockstar Game Launcher and supported titles is temporarily offline for maintenance. Service will return as soon as maintenance is completed.

Rockstar Support tweeted out an update 14 hours after that first tweet: maintenance work is going on and launcher is still working. There have been no updates since at the time of this writing.
Aside from the necessary “maintenance,” Rockstar hasn’t officially announced exactly what’s wrong or what’s going on with the trio. Perhaps something happened on the launcher backend, or maybe there was something wrong in the code of the PC version. Hopefully Rockstar will update players on what happened when the game is back online (and available for redemption).
In the meantime, check out Full song list available in trilogy and then read about how Rockstar had to remove a few cheats from it for technical reasons. Check out this story on how San Andreas is in development for Oculus Quest 2 afterward.
