Meta has finally confirmed that the GTA San Andreas VR project is on hold. After months of speculation that fizzled out more than three years after the team announced a VR remake of San Andreas, the project has been put on hold indefinitely as the company looks to focus on other projects.
Although the game’s development spanned several years, it was suddenly and decisively halted by Meta, which is a disappointing confirmation for VR fans everywhere.
“Grove Street … Home”
I don’t particularly like VR games, but I would have had a lot of fun playing GTA San Andreas VR. Imagine that – you get on a BMX bike and ride down Grove Street, run around the Johnsons’ house and do brutal drive-bys against opponents. That would have been a fantastic way to again one of the best games of all time.
In a statement posted on YouTube, the Meta Quest team confirmed:
GTA: San Andreas is on hold indefinitely as we both focus on other projects. We look forward to working with our friends at Rockstar in the future.
That’s it – it’s the end of an era. Back in 2021, the Meta Quest team announced that they were working on San Andreas VR, but to date, neither solid gameplay images nor screenshots of the game have surfaced, suggesting that they haven’t gotten too far with the project.
