If you're a Netflix subscriber enjoying Grand Theft Auto on Android through Netflix Games, brace yourself for some significant changes. GTA III and GTA Vice City are set to depart from the Netflix Games platform next month.
Why Are These GTA Games Leaving Netflix and When?
This isn't a random decision. Netflix licenses games similarly to how it licenses movies and TV series. The licenses for these two GTA games are due to expire next month, and you'll notice a 'Leaving Soon' label on these games before they exit the platform.
GTA III and Vice City were added to Netflix Games exactly a year ago under a 12-month agreement with Rockstar Games. Consequently, these games will no longer be accessible to Netflix subscribers after December 13th.
If you've been immersed in the chaos of Grand Theft Auto III or cruising the neon-lit streets of Vice City via Netflix, it's time to conclude your adventures. However, CJ and the crew from San Andreas will remain on the platform for now.
What’s Next for These Titles?
If you haven't completed these games yet, you can purchase them from the Google Play Store. The Definitive Editions of Grand Theft Auto III and Vice City are available for $4.99 each, while the entire trilogy can be bought for $11.99.
Unlike Samurai Shodown V and WrestleQuest, which vanished from Netflix's lineup last year without warning, Netflix is giving players advance notice about GTA's departure. Interestingly, Rockstar Games has chosen not to renew their license with Netflix Games, despite the latter gaining numerous subscribers in 2023 thanks to the game trilogy.
Rumors suggest that Rockstar and Netflix are collaborating on potential remastered versions of Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories, and even Chinatown Wars. Let's hope these rumors come to fruition!
