For years, Rockstar was pretty strict about mods, but things are different now. Basically, they’ve decided to start charging for modifications, and that’s opened things up a lot. It’s a big shift, and honestly, it’s cool to finally see them embracing the modding community – even if it’s with a price tag!
- An official site, marketplace.cfx.re, has just been launched, where mods for Grand Theft Auto 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 are sold, specifically projects built on the FiveM and RedM platforms, which are used by various mods and roleplaying/RP servers they run on.
- The website is the result of work by the CFX.re group. This is a fan team that developed FiveM and RedM. In 2023, the creators were bought by Rockstar Games.
- At the time of writing this news, there are 323 projects available on marketplace.cfx.re, and only seventeen of them are free. The paid ones can be very expensive – the most costly is the Activities Bundle for Grand Theft Auto V, priced at $479.99, which includes a range of modifications with additional activities such as bowling or billiards. The most expensive single mod is the Theme Park DLC, which significantly expands the amusement park available in GTA 5.
As a long-time fan, it’s really fascinating to look back at how Rockstar Games has handled things over the years. I remember back in 2015, they actually went up against FiveM, a platform for creating custom servers for GTA 5. They were worried it would encourage people to pirate the game, so they ended up banning the three people who originally made FiveM. It’s wild to see how their stance has changed since then!
In 2022, the studio reversed its previous decision and began permitting servers using platforms like FiveM and RedM, as long as those servers weren’t used for profit. These role-playing games became incredibly popular, leading to the original creators being acquired by another company, who have now released an official mod store for Rockstar games.
