Then, in August 2024, Meta said the project was on hold indefinitely while Meta and Rockstar turned their attention to other projects. Fans have long pointed to a few likely reasons: how hard it would be to rebuild Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for first-person VR, the limits of Quest 2-era hardware, and business priorities changing along the way.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is a catch, and it&#8217;s not a small one: <strong>you can&#8217;t just pull<\/strong> this mod from an app store. You need a PC, a Meta Quest 3 with Developer Mode and USB debugging turned on, about 15GB of free space on your PC and 6GB on the headset, the original Google Play APK version 2.11.311, and a PS2 sound pack. And if something breaks, you&#8217;re on your own, because Rockstar, Take-Two, and Meta aren&#8217;t offering any official support.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if you&#8217;ve been waiting to play Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in VR on Meta Quest 3, and you don&#8217;t mind getting your hands a little dirty, this is absolutely worth grabbing. It also says a lot about where the most interesting VR conversion work for older games is still happening, in communities like Flat2VR.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can find the Meta Quest 3 mod through community channels.
