- GTA 4’s Liberty City has been imported into GTA 5 with a new mod.
- This mod also brings over the interiors, pedestrians, and vehicles from Liberty City.
- Fans continue to demand a GTA 4 remaster despite Rockstar Games ignoring the title.
GTA 5 has been Rockstar Games’ cash cow for more than a decade now, bringing in millions of sales and revenue worth billions of dollars. The title has also received plenty of additional content, but no love has been shown to the single-player side of the title since its release.
Fortunately, the game has a dedicated modding community. This community’s latest achievement comes in the form of a gorgeous recreation of Liberty City, adding a whole new dynamic to the open world.
Why it matters: Rockstar Games reportedly scrapped a GTA 4 remaster in the past, disappointing fans who hoped to see the title shine on modern platforms.
The mod in question is dubbed Liberty City Preservation Project and aims to do exactly what the title implies. This project has been in the works for a while and is now available to download through the developers’ Discord link.
It effectively imports the map, vehicles, interiors, and pedestrians from GTA 4 into GTA 5. The mod even brings over radio stations in an attempt to recapture Liberty City’s meticulous atmosphere.
Paired with GTA 5’s gorgeous visuals and art style, the Liberty City Preservation Project effectively delivers the long-anticipated GTA 4 remaster that fans have longed for. Unfortunately, this mod’s quality has also become a cause for concern.
Fans are worried about Take-Two or Rockstar Games potentially shutting the mod down. The team may have intentions to remaster GTA 4 following Red Dead Redemption’s recent successful re-release, so the mod could become a target of legal action.
Nonetheless, fans have been thoroughly impressed by the modding team’s work. The concept of traversing Liberty City with GTA 5’s characters and gameplay mechanics certainly sounds intriguing, making this mod immensely popular already.
