The internet may have discovered that Rockstar Games was working on a remaster of Midnight Club: Los Angeles at one point, assuming it's not still in development right now. As spotted by YouTuber SuperType1, an artist named Markus Kienzl made an Instagram post on August 26th, 2021 that noted that Rockstar Games had licensed one of his songs for a trailer for a Midnight Club: Los Angeles remaster. Somehow, this flew under everyone's radar and has only been recently brought to light. Obviously, it's a bit strange since Rockstar Games hasn't announced, let alone suggested such a remaster was in the works. There were rumors of a GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption remaster, but they were reportedly shelved following the reception of the recent GTA trilogy and Rockstar choosing to focus on Grand Theft Auto VI.
It's possible that a Midnight Club: Los Angeles remaster was going to be one of those remastered projects, but it got shelved at the same time as the others. Nevertheless, if that was the case, it's a bit strange that Rockstar Games would've licensed a song for a trailer. That would indicate it was pretty deep into development, but perhaps Kienzl's post isn't completely accurate. Either way, it's a pretty strange situation.
