Unfortunately for those eager to indulge in running over civilians in a monster truck in virtual reality, the VR-focused remake of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas has been put on hold indefinitely, as reported by IGN. This project, initially announced three years ago and intended to be a Quest 2 title, seems to have hit a roadblock that has left fans waiting. Despite being in the lifecycle of the Quest 3, there is no news of progress, making the situation somewhat expected. The official Meta Quest VR statement mentions focusing on other projects, leaving the fate of the San Andreas VR remake uncertain. The lack of screenshots, in-game footage, or even a trailer further adds to the disappointment, especially since Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg had hinted at a unique virtual reality experience for players in the game. Speculation surrounds the expensive nature of translating the game into VR, particularly during a time when reports suggest a decline in the VR market. Without a clear reason for the indefinite hold, it’s unclear if the project will ever see the light of day, leaving fans and gamers in limbo about its future.
