There appears to be an incomplete VR mode for the GTA Trilogy.
Ben Turpin, a well-known reporter at RockstarINTEL, allegedly found the incomplete VR mode by poking around inside the GTA Trilogy’s code. It only seems to apply to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, however.
“There is a debug Unreal command for GTA VR but it looks a little bit unfinished,” Turpin said on Twitter. “Maybe it would be cool if they implemented this as a first-person option? It plays pretty well. Gunfights and punching will need tweaking, [it] would be super cool for screenshots!”
You can check out Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in VR for yourself below.

Turpin claims anyone can try this mode out by entering the “GTA.VR 1” command inside the game’s debug console. You will need to install a small mod to access it, though.
It’s a safe bet that this is related to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas VR that Facebook, excuse me, Meta announced last month. Rockstar Games never said anything about the GTA Trilogy having a VR mode, though. Given the numerous bugs found all over the Definitive Edition, PC modders were likely to find the VR hints sooner or later.
