This is an overview of a canceled project, *Grand Theft Auto Re: Liberty City Stories* (Re:LCS), a total conversion mod for *Grand Theft Auto: Vice City*. The project aimed to unofficially port *Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories* (originally for PlayStation 2) to PC. Development started in 2017 with the goal of delivering an enhanced PC version.

Core Design

The primary focus of Re:LCS was to recreate the *Liberty City Stories* experience, optimized for PC gaming. The project included enhanced graphics, native widescreen support, XInput controller compatibility, and optimized keyboard and mouse controls. The intention was to offer a more refined and accessible version of the game for PC players.

Setting and Story

The setting was to remain in Liberty City, immersing players in its criminal underworld. The storyline, mirroring the original *Liberty City Stories*, was intended to unfold within this environment. However, specific details are unavailable due to the project's cancellation.

What Caused the Project's Cancellation?

Unfortunately, the project was discontinued in 2021. All official download links were removed following actions against *Grand Theft Auto* modding, leaving the game unavailable.
