That's right, Grand Theft Auto fans. Rockstar is working on an iOS version of Vice City to be released for the touch screen platform later this fall. The game joins other mobile entries by Rockstar including Grand Theft Auto III, GTA Chinatown Wars and Max Payne Mobile currently available on iTunes.
Rockstar Games is celebrating Vice City's 10th anniversary, and the company plans to release several enhancements to the title in the mobile version. These include native high-resolution graphics and new artwork to commemorate the anniversary. GTA Vice City will also come to Android devices and Rockstar will release a new trailer featuring key scenes from the game.
Rockstar Games founder Sam Houser told Cult of Mac that the title "gave players the freedom of a massive open-world in one of the most iconic and vibrant settings ever realized in a game. It was a defining moment in the series and we’re delighted to be celebrating its 10th anniversary this year with a stunning, updated version for phones and tablets."
An exact release date and pricing for the iOS version of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City have not been announced. GTA III and GTA Chinatown Wars for iOS are currently on sale for $0.99 to commemorate the anniversary. Max Payne Mobile is available for $2.99.
