Let’s be honest, GTA 4 was a huge hit back in 2008. Every fan played it, and it’s still remembered as one of the best games of its time.
Now, fans want GTA 4 remastered for PS5 before GTA 6 drops in 2026. The sentiment isn’t just hopeful chatter; there are several solid signs showing this could be more than just fans wishing out loud.
What Fans Are Saying
On Reddit, one thread gained major traction where users expressed frustration that GTA 4 has been “forgotten” by Rockstar, comparing it to remastered classics. One user wrote, “GTA 4 with modern graphics would be an auto buy for me.”
Another post by fan community Tez2 suggested that a GTA 4 port or remaster could drop as early as late 2025, fueling hope among players who want something to fill the gap before GTA 6.
What Industry Sources Are Suggesting
Former Rockstar Technical Director Obbe Vermeij weighed in, stating: “I think GTA IV should be remastered. It’s a great game and there have been a number of successful remasters recently.”
He emphasized that while it hasn’t been confirmed, the demand and potential are there.
Official Signals & Roadblocks
An interesting clue came when Rockstar’s support page briefly listed PlayStation 4 as a platform for GTA IV, which it never officially had. It sparked speculation about upcoming releases.
However, this was later removed, and Rockstar has not officially confirmed any remaster.

What a GTA 4 Remaster Could Look Like
If Rockstar Games does decide to release a GTA 4 remaster for PS5, fans expect it to feature enhanced 4K graphics, improved lighting, and smoother performance at 60 FPS. With the power of next-gen consoles, Liberty City could finally look as realistic and vibrant as ever.
As for pricing, most analysts predict that a GTA 4 remaster could cost around $49.99 to $59.99, similar to other recent remastered releases from major studios.
Either way, fans agree on one thing, a GTA 4 remaster on PS5 would be the perfect way to revisit Liberty City before the long-awaited GTA 6 launch in 2026.
