GTA V is a game that delights players with its open world and diverse features. However, with the help of mods, you can greatly enhance this experience by adding unique graphical enhancements, new characters, and fun. In this list, we will look at the best GTA V mods, including graphics, characters, and fun mods that will make your game even more fun.
NaturalVision Evolved
- Developer: Razed
- Size: ~6 GB
NaturalVision Evolved is one of the most famous GTA 5 graphics mod. It significantly improves the visual effects of the game, adding realistic lighting, textures and atmospheric effects. The mod changes almost everything you see, but at the same time, it increases the consumption of resources for such a performance. So, the mod may not be for everyone.
SPDFR (Los Santos Police Department First Response)
- Developer: LSPDFR Team
- Size: ~500 MB
LSPDFR allows players to take on the role of a police officer in Los Santos. This mod turns the game into a police simulator, adding missions, interaction with NPCs, and the ability to drive police cars. Players can also stop criminals and participate in pursuits.
Something similar can be found on RP servers, but everything happens in real-time. SPDFR is a mod for single-player and generally conveys the features of everyday police work.
Menyoo PC
- Developer: MAFINS
- Size: ~3.7MB
Menyoo is a powerful content creator mod that allows players to customize various elements of the game. With Menyoo, you can manage objects, create scenarios, and customize game settings. The mod is great for creating beautiful screenshots, creating various scenes for videos, etc. A separate menu was developed for the mod, which includes almost all objects in the game, from trees to various UFOs.
GTA 5 Redux
- Developer: GTAV Redux Team
- Size: ~5 GB
GTA 5 Redux is a comprehensive graphics mod that completely changes the visual effects of the game. It includes improved textures, models, weather effects and even updated animations. The mod is designed for those who want to improve and rethink the graphics in the game as much as possible.
But the mod has high (sometimes even crazy) system requirements, including compatibility issues with other mods. Therefore, if you want to use graphic mods, it is better to focus on one thing, especially when it comes to multi-complex projects.
Enhanced Native Trainer
- Developer: Eddlm
- Size: ~1 MB
Enhanced Native Trainer allows players to customize many aspects of the game, including graphics, vehicles, and characters. This mod offers a wide range of features that make it an indispensable tool for modifying the game. Its advantage is that it does not bring new aspects to the game but allows you to change the current ones.
This can be understood from the size of the mod, just 1 MB. That is, unlike others, it is much easier to start with installation and use. As an example, you can reduce the number of NPCs in the game, cars, etc. The same applies to visual effects, including shadows or settings that in the game (even if set to minimum) can be completely disabled. Ideal for weak and mid-range PCs.
Realism Dispatch Enhancer
- Developer: F7YO
- Size: ~1 GB
Realism Dispatch Enhancer improves the police call system and NPC reaction, adding more realism to the world of GTA V. The mod includes new scenarios for interaction with the player, improving AI and making game situations more exciting. At first, the mod is not particularly noticeable, but over time, you will understand how imperfect the original AI system (and in-game events) were.
Superman Mod
- Size: ~30 MB
- Compatibility: GTA V (version 1.0.2545.0 and higher)
With the Superman Mod, you can become Superman in Los Santos! This mod allows players to fly, use superpowers, and interact with the world around them, just like the famous hero does. Gameplay-wise, this is more of a fun mod, but at the same time, you can literally go through the story as Superman.
Hulk Mod
- Size: ~40 MB
- Compatibility: GTA V (version 1.0.2545.0 and higher)
Don’t like DC, and are you more of a Marvel fan? With Hulk Mod, you can become a real Hulk and wreak havoc in Los Santos. This mod allows players to turn into the Hulk, using his incredible powers and abilities, including powerful blows and long-distance jumps.
In general, any characters can be added to GTA using mods. The most popular are anime characters like Naruto, Luffy, or Goku. Therefore, the list of such mods can be continued for a long time. However, Superman and Hulk are the most developed and popular among them.
Complex Control
- Developer: THEAETIK
- Size: ~100 MB
Despite its small size, Complex Control adds more than 100 unique character skins and, to top it all off, unique abilities. Overall, it’s a mix of GTA V and RPG, where you can create your build and, at the same time, polish it with a skin to match your character’s style.
The development of the mod took more than 1,500 minutes because it was necessary to create not only a shell but also a core of all abilities. The first version of the mod was released back in 2019, and its latest version was released in 2021. As a single-player mod, it’s pretty good, but after almost 3 years, it has clearly lost out to other projects.
Pikachu Car Mod
- Size: ~15 MB
- Compatibility: GTA V (version 1.0.2545.0 and higher)
And the last mod for today, which simply eclipsed all the others. Pikachu Car is undoubtedly the best addition to your collection of supercars and stylish vehicles. Since the mod does not replace but, on the contrary, adds Pikachu Car to the game, it is compatible with all others.
How to Download Mods
Downloading mods for GTA V is a fairly simple process. First of all, you need to select the mods you are interested in on specialized sites such as GTA5-Mods, Nexus Mods, or ModDB. Do not forget that installing mods can affect the stability of the game, so it is always a good idea to back up your files, as Pikachu Machine can destroy the entire balance mod collection to 0.
