GTA 3 Update 1.007

Rockstar Games just sprung a surprise patch for Grand Theft Auto 3 today, and it seems it’s only for current-gen platforms for now. Players can now download GTA 3 update 1.007 as part of the Definitive Edition Trilogy, and this brings visual improvements across the entire collection.

GTA 3 Update 1.007 Adds Classic Lighting Options

Update: Rockstar has released the official patch notes, and confirmed the patch is only for current-gen consoles and PC.

[November 12, 2024] General – PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC

  • Numerous fixes and improvements
  • Added Classic Lighting mode which restores the look and feel of the sky in the original games

While Rockstar Games has not released any official patch notes just yet, based on our testing, we found a few notable changes made.

  • Classic lighting
  • Improved models
  • Improved textures

It seems the entire Definitive Edition got the classic lighting mode option that was available for mobile two years ago. You can read about it in our breakdown to see what we mean. Apparently, this update brings the console and PC version up to par to the Netflix version of the trilogy. Yes, you read that right — the mobile version of a game is ahead of the console and PC versions.

We are on the lookout for more changes made, and if Rockstar releases the official notes, which we presume will happen later today, we’ll add the info in the article.
