Will GTA 6 have mods? Everything we know about GTA 6 modding

GTA VI mods will depend on a PC release. Here is how GTA modding has worked historically and what is likely to happen with GTA VI.

GTA 6 will get mods once it comes out on PC. PS5 and Xbox Series X|S can't load modified game files, so console players are locked out, and modders are waiting on a PC version Rockstar hasn't announced yet.

How GTA V modding worked

GTA V's modding scene grew around a few key tools:

  1. OpenIV, an archive editor for reading and replacing game files.
  2. Script Hook V, which lets custom scripts run in single-player.
  3. FiveM, a multiplayer modification for custom roleplay servers.

In 2017, Take-Two sent a cease-and-desist to the OpenIV team. After community backlash, Rockstar stated that Take-Two generally does not take action against third-party single-player PC mods, and OpenIV development continued.

What is different for GTA VI

  • Rockstar owns FiveM's developer. Cfx.re joined Rockstar in August 2023, which suggests roleplay servers will have an official-adjacent path.
  • Online stays off-limits. Using mods in GTA Online breaks Rockstar's terms and can lead to bans. Single-player is where modding is tolerated.

What to expect on GTA VI Mods

Every mod on GTA VI Mods is free to download. Each listing shows its version, changelog, file size and requirements, and creators can publish upcoming mods as "coming soon" so you can follow them and get notified the moment files go live.
