As previously announced by Rockstar Games, a special anniversary edition of the popular Grand Theft Auto 3 game is now available for Android and iOS devices.

The anniversary edition similar to the now 10-year old original that is arguably considered the most influential games of all time, is optimized for touch-screen devices, with resizable custom controls. However,  there are two major improvements to the original version – they are autosave mode and mission retry which have been implemented to avoid users causing harm to their mobile devices out of pure frustration while playing.

The game is compatible with the iPhone 4S and 4, 4th generation iPod touch and iPad 1 and 2. Supported Android devices include HTC Rezound, LG Optimus 2x, Motorola Atrix 4G, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola Photon 4G, Samsung Galaxy R, T-Mobile G2x.

Supported Android tablets include the LG Optimus Pad, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and 10.1, Sony Tablet S.

The game is now available to download from the Android Market and iTunes Store.
