The Modding Team Behind Popular FiveM Project Joins Rockstar Games
In a surprising turn of events, Rockstar Games has officially hired the modding team, Cfx.re, responsible for the renowned FiveM project in Grand Theft Auto 5. This move is particularly notable as Rockstar banned everyone associated with the project in 2015, citing concerns over code that potentially facilitated piracy. The FiveM mod is a robust framework that enables the creation of custom multiplayer servers, enhancing the GTA 5 experience for its vast player base. Cfx.re is the brain behind RedM, a similar mod for Red Dead Redemption 2.
Rockstar Games signals a promising future for its player community by embracing these modders. The integration of Cfx.re into Rockstar’s official team suggests improvements in social and multiplayer facets in the company’s forthcoming projects. This strategic decision showcases Rockstar’s adaptability and willingness to collaborate with talented individuals, even if they once stood on opposing sides.
