In a significant shift from their previously strained relationship with the modding community, Rockstar Games has officially endorsed a Brazilian roleplay (RP) server for Grand Theft Auto 5. The developer is offering a substantial in-game cash bonus to players who join the server between August 19, 2024, and September 1, 2024.
This endorsement follows Rockstar's acquisition of Cfx.re nearly a year ago, the team behind FiveM, a popular platform for hosting modded GTA 5 servers with a strong emphasis on RP experiences. The acquisition hinted at a potential shift in Rockstar's stance on modding, and this recent endorsement reinforces that notion.
To encourage participation, Rockstar is offering a generous in-game cash bonus. Existing players will receive GTA$400,000, while new players from Brazil and Portugal will get an impressive GTA$800,000, which is particularly beneficial for new players.
Unfortunately, this offer is limited to PC players, as FiveM is not yet available on consoles. However, rumors of FiveM potentially expanding to consoles have been circulating since the Cfx.re acquisition.
