Red Dead Redemption's Map Has Been Modded Into Grand Theft Auto V
As reported on NeoGAF, a modding team that goes by Team White has brought the Xbox 360 version of Red Dead Redemption's map to Grand Theft Auto V on PC. Tentatively titled "Red Dead Redemption V", the mod has taken just over two years to get to this point.
Team White says that players should expect a teaser trailer soon, with a beta coming sometime this summer. They also put out a brief FAQ, as wells as some pretty impressive screenshots, both of which you can take a look at here.
The most interesting thing mentioned in the FAQ pertains to what exactly the mod is. While it is not a full port of Red Dead Redemption to the PC, Team White does mention that the full map will feature "additional content" in the future. It remains to be seen what this additional content entails, whether it be from Red Dead Redemption's single player, multiplayer, or possibly original content. Either way, the mod is an impressive feat.
In other Grand Theft Auto V news, the game's multiplayer suite is still pumping out content with a new series of racing tracks, and a double XP event going through March 22. You can read more about it here.
