New PlayersStarting, Grand Theft Auto IV: Complete Edition will replace both Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City wherever it is currently digitally available.

We are making a number of changes to make sure players who own Grand Theft Auto IV and GTA: Episodes from Liberty City can continue to enjoy these games. Anyone with a physical copy not yet activated will also receive the Complete Edition when they enter their product key.Important Updates To Grand Theft Auto IV and Episodes from Liberty City Players who have previously purchased either title on Steam will be able to update to the Complete Edition when it goes live. Rockstar will also be temporarily removing several of the in-game radio stations. However, the removal of all Games For Windows Live components means the title will no longer have a multiplayer mode or leaderboards.

It will still be compatible with previous save files. The Complete Edition will also replace both titles on other digital marketplaces and be available on the Rockstar Games Launcher. In an update on the game's Steam page, Rockstar has announced the game will be re-released on March 19 as Grand Theft Auto IV: Complete Edition, replacing both the base game and the Episodes from Liberty City expansion. This was attributed to the fact GTA IV was built for Games For Windows Live, which Microsoft no longer supports.

The game was removed from the store after the developer lost the ability to generate new product keys.

Rockstar Games is bringing Grand Theft Auto IV back to Steam, having pulled it form sale last month.
