Evidence of a potential Grand Theft Auto 4 remaster or port continues to build, and the latest clue might be the most convincing yet. Fans recently noticed that Rockstar Games’ official support website now lists the 2008 classic for the PlayStation 4, a console it has never officially released on — sparking a new wave of speculation about an incoming GTA 4 PS4 port.

🔍 Fans Spot New Platform Listing

On Rockstar’s support page, players can now select PlayStation 4 when submitting support requests related to Grand Theft Auto IV: Story Mode. Since GTA 4 has never been available on PS4 — either digitally or physically — this listing has raised eyebrows across the community. Could this be the first public sign that a PS4 version is in the works?

While it’s possible the inclusion is just a website error, the timing is suspiciously close to ongoing rumors of a port in development.

🕹️ Why This Matters

Grand Theft Auto IV originally launched in 2008 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and is often hailed as one of the series’ most realistic and emotionally grounded entries. Despite its age, the game remains highly regarded and regularly replayed by fans — especially on PC and Xbox, where backward compatibility makes it more accessible.

PlayStation users, however, have long been left behind. Unlike Xbox, Sony never offered backward compatibility for GTA 4 on PS4 or PS5, which has kept the game locked to the older PS3 hardware. A PS4 port would finally give PlayStation gamers a way to revisit Liberty City with modern convenience.

🔥 Rumors of a Port Are Heating Up

Earlier this year, a trusted insider reported that Rockstar has been quietly working on a current-gen port of GTA 4 for over a year. According to the leak, the updated version could be released before the end of 2025 — possibly as a digital-only release in the PlayStation Store.

While Rockstar hasn’t officially commented on these rumors, this new support page listing adds fuel to the fire.

🎯 What’s Next?

With Grand Theft Auto 6 expected to arrive in 2025, a GTA 4 re-release could serve multiple purposes: keep fans engaged, provide new players with a taste of Rockstar’s storytelling legacy, and bridge the gap between the GTA 5 era and the franchise’s future.

Until Rockstar confirms it, this remains a developing story. But if you’ve been waiting to play GTA 4 on PS4 (or forward-compatible on PS5), this might be your best chance yet.
