It’s hard to ignore such a rumor since Rockstar themselves have been suggesting the same over the years. same. Take-Two, the parent company of Rockstar Games, said that they’re working on “iterations of previously released titles” during an investor meeting not too long ago.

During the same meeting, Take-Two also showcased its interest in the mobile gaming industry. It's a growing market with endless possibilities. The company's free-to-play mobile games have been very successful in the recent past. Reports say that Take-Two intends to release 24 free-to-play titles between fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2024. A lot of those titles probably would be for mobile devices.

The game has not received a proper update since early-mid 2019. Also, if you're on newer mobile operating systems, the game won't run.
