GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition is said to remove some of the game’s controversial elements. All three games have now been rated by PEGI.
In their rating, PEGI has outlined some of the mature content in the game. Those who have played them might find that most of the violent and sexual content is there. While reports are suggesting that some of the changes will relate to the sensitive content in the game, but so far nothing has been confirmed officially by Rockstar.
