- Playback Compatibility
- Continued access requires the archive account, Steam’s support for the title, and Rockstar launcher / online services where the client requires them.
- Preservation Concerns
- Account-bound digital holdings face platform dependency and policy change. Multiplayer components and third-party launcher requirements increase long-term access risk. No physical disc or offline installer is held for this filing.
