GTA5 remains a fantastic game that is worth revisiting. That doesn’t change the fact that it is a game that is almost 12 years old and shows its age. Seeing what GTA 6 is capable of makes it impossible not to dream about what Rockstar is cooking up and the possibilities its world will offer and being able to try it out already. Especially after its incredible second trailer. And while it’s not the same, it is true that it is possible to have something similar to that experience, at least if we have a computer capable of handling it. All thanks to mods.
That’s why we bring you a selection of 8 mods so you can play GTA5 as if it were GTA6. At least in terms of pure engine power. It won’t change any of its story or characters, but graphically and mechanically it will make so many changes that you’ll feel like it’s a completely different game. Much more modern. And believe us: you’re going to need a more than decent computer to run all this at the same time.
RTGI Reshade and ENB Pack for NaturalVision Remastered
With this mod you will be able to change all the shaders of the game. What does that mean? It means you will drastically change how the game’s lighting works. Now it will be much more realistic and will make the entire game feel much more modern and grounded in reality. That said, it will demand a lot from your computer, so you better keep that in mind. Because as we add more things, it will be harder for your poor processor. Not to mention your graphics card.
No Chromatic aberration and Lens distortion
This mod is quite simple, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t require explanation. With it, we manage to eliminate chromatic aberration and lens distortion, meaning we will stop seeing the game with all the post-processing effects that give it a more cinematic look. This aims to provide a cleaner and more realistic effect that many people appreciate because it makes it look more modern. Especially with mods like the previous one.
Enhanced Night Sky
All the work so far would be useless if by nightfall the night sky remained the same, and this mod changes that. Offering us a starry night, with its Moon, much more defined and better integrated. Something that gives the whole a much more solid appearance and, in general, provides that quality look that makes it easier not to break immersion in the game.
FOV and Ultrawide
If you have a widescreen monitor, you need this mod to be able to see the game taking advantage of the entire screen. If not, it will also help you to have a greater drawing distance. That is, to be able to see even further than the game normally would allow. A small delight that adds something we didn’t know we needed: being able to see more of Liberty City.
Mejor deformación y coches más duraderos
Don’t you miss that, with all the dedication that goes into the game, the cars don’t deform more and better? Well, that’s what this mod does. It destroys your car in every imaginable way and conditionally based on the impacts it suffers with this mod to add that extra realism you need. Or maybe, because you enjoy smashing things. We don’t judge.
Vehicle Handling Mega Mod 150 Vehicles CrazyCops Seat Belts Deform
Speaking of cars, let’s not kid ourselves: the cars in GTA5 handle quite poorly. Thanks to this mod, the cars now handle much better, creating significant differences between them. Additionally, if you want, you can make your character put on a seatbelt and have the police behave more aggressively behind the wheel. Because it can’t just be about the cars driving well, you know?
Realism Traffic A.I Overhaul
To top it all off, let’s put the cherry on the cake. How about the game’s traffic AI not being a mess? That would be cool, right? Well, that’s what this mod does exactly. Drivers will behave in a more realistic and varied way with this mod, making it feel more natural to drive through the city. Although that will also make it easier for you to have traffic accidents. But we agreed that you enjoy things with these ultra-realistic graphics, so what better way to kill time until the arrival of GTA6?
