It’s hard to get a handle on what’s going on here simply because Rockstar has been so quiet. As Kotaku points out, certain Rockstar games available through Steam require the Launcher as well – notably Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA Online – meaning those have been inaccessible all this time, too. Obviously, players can’t access any PC games they purchased directly through Rockstar while the Launcher is offline, but it gets even worse than that. More titles beyond Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition are impacted by the Rockstar Games Launcher being taken offline. For now, we have no idea when the Rockstar Games Launcher and the PC titles that need it will be functional again. In the time since then, it has only posted one update thanking fans for their patience as Rockstar works to restore service. The Rockstar Support Twitter account first notified users that it was taking the Rockstar Games Launcher offline for “maintenance” around 20 hours ago. Services will return as soon as maintenance is completed. Services for the Rockstar Games Launcher and supported titles are temporarily offline for maintenance.
