Meta’s VR version of GTA: San Andreas is ‘on hold indefinitely’

The Quest version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which was first announced nearly three years ago, is “on hold indefinitely,” Meta confirmed to IGN and in a comment on a YouTube video. “GTA: San Andreas is on hold indefinitely while we both focus on other projects,” the Meta Quest VR account said in response to a comment on a video for Skydance’s Behemoth. “We look forward to working with our friends at Rockstar in the future.”

Meta announced the game in October 2021 as part of its Connect conference, saying that it was in development for the Meta Quest 2. “Get a new perspective on Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas as you experience (again or for the first time) one of gaming’s most iconic open worlds,” Meta wrote in a blog post. “This is a project many years in the making, and we can’t wait to show you more of it.”

At the time, Meta and Rockstar Games didn’t share any footage or screenshots of this VR version of San Andreas. Now, it seems like we may never see it at all. Meta and Rockstar didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment.
