Switch Physical Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition Requires Download

Grand Theft Auto The Trilogy The Definitive Edition

It appears that Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch will need to download one game separately.

A listing for Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on Target’s website features a note on the front of the Nintendo Switch box; “Download required. See back.” However, the back of the box is not featured on the website.


The Nintendo Switch eShop lists the games as a bundle, though the individual games cannot be purchased separately. The whole bundle is noted as being 13.1 GB (with San Andreas taking up 10.8 GB); though the US eShop warns “The estimated system space that will be required to download all three games is 22 GB.”

 

The page for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City may have the answer for the physical version. While only 119 MB, the store notes “The estimated system space that will be required to download this game is 6.5 GB.” This may also be the case with the physical game.

A Nintendo Switch card can be up to 32GB in size, and as such all three games at 22 GB should have comfortably fit. We have reached out to  Rockstar Games for comment.

In earlier news, a confederate flag has been censored in Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition; raising questions of other changes.

Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition launches November 11th for Windows PC (via the Rockstar Games Launcher), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
