Rockstar's ground-breaking Grand Theft Auto III will go from a cutting-edge console game to a pocketable pleasure when it heads to "select new generation" iOS and Android devices next week.

Timing of the availability of the title in New Zealand was not included in this announcement, however we'd expect it to be at about the same time. It's priced at $4.99 USD, so expect it to come in at around $6.49 here.
