The Definitive Edition release was very much similar to the original's, but with redone and AI upscaled textures and improved lighting. Data miners found that it was based on the mobile port of the original, which features numerous bugs. Upon release the game received severe criticism for its visuals, grammatical errors in upscaled textures, poor performance and technical issues. The Definitive Edition lacks the custom soundtrack and player skin functionalities from the original version.
The game was released exclusively on the Rockstar Games Launcher on November 11, 2021. More than a year later on January 19, 2023 the game was also made available on Steam.
