Top 10 Most Downloaded Mods For GTA 5 2025

The GTA 5 modding community is absolutely massive—and it’s showing no signs of slowing down! Every day, talented creators release fresh new mods that bring all kinds of wild, exciting, and immersive experiences to the single-player game. Whether it’s stunning graphics overhauls, gameplay tweaks, or complete map conversions, there’s something for everyone.

To celebrate this thriving creative scene, we’re kicking off a brand-new series spotlighting some of the best and most popular mods out there. And what better way to begin than by diving into the most downloaded GTA 5 mods released in March 2025?

1. Main Menu Skip



First things first—let’s clear up something important. The mod ‘Main Menu Skip for GTA V Enhanced’ by WesternGamer is an absolute game-changer. It allows you to jump straight into Story Mode as soon as the game launches—no need to sit through menus or click through multiple prompts.

If you love experimenting with single-player mods in GTA 5, this is a must-have. Interestingly, this skip feature was available in the Legacy version of the game, but Rockstar removed it with the release of the Enhanced edition. Thanks to this mod, you can bring that convenience back and get into the action faster than ever.

2. VHud

The HUD (Heads-Up Display) is an essential part of the gameplay experience in GTA 5—it keeps you informed and in control at all times. To take things up a notch, the mod ‘VHud’ by MNHC introduces a sleek, advanced HUD system that enhances both form and function.

VHud adds a fully customizable UI with modern elements such as health, armor, hunger, thirst, and fuel bars, giving you a more immersive and survival-style experience. But that’s not all—additional interactive features appear when visiting stores and gas stations, making the world feel more alive and responsive.

The in-game HUD menu is intuitive and stylish, offering players a much deeper level of control and feedback.

3. NPC POV

Ever wondered what it’s like to live a day in the life of a GTA 5 NPC—while you’re out there causing absolute chaos? That’s exactly what the mod ‘NPC POV’ by Alibyy lets you experience!

With this mod, you can view the world of GTA 5 through the eyes of its everyday pedestrians, giving you a completely fresh and immersive perspective. Whether they’re walking down the street, reacting to explosions, or running from your five-star rampage—you get to see it all from their point of view.

The mod’s creator has also shared a YouTube showcase demonstrating all of its features. Check it out here:

4. Hoodcore

If you’ve played GTA: San Andreas, you’ll definitely remember the thrill of rolling with your gang and taking over the streets. That classic feature added so much life and identity to the gameplay. Unfortunately, Rockstar didn’t carry it over to GTA 5—but that’s where the mod ‘Hoodcore’ by KassiteR steps in.

Hoodcore brings back the gangland vibe in a big way. It introduces mechanics like territory capturing, letting you claim parts of the map and defend them from rival factions. On top of that, the mod features advanced companion systems, allowing you to recruit, manage, and move with your crew just like in the old days.

It’s a perfect blend of nostalgia and new-gen gameplay, breathing fresh life into the streets of Los Santos.

5. Blinker Control

Next up on our list is the mod ‘Blinker Control’ by Alibyy—and it’s all about adding a touch of realism to your driving experience. As the name suggests, this mod lets you manually control your vehicle’s turn signals (blinkers)—a feature that isn’t available in the base game.

While GTA 5 does let you toggle headlights by default, Blinker Control takes things further by introducing proper indicator functionality, making it perfect for players who enjoy roleplay or just want a more immersive, law-abiding drive through Los Santos.

Sure, most of us tend to break every traffic law in sight—but having the option to drive like a civilized person is a nice touch!

The mod’s creator has also shared a showcase video so you can see it in action. Check it out here:

6. 163FPS Cap remover

While Rockstar did patch the 120fps frame limit bug that plagued the initial release of GTA 5 Enhanced, the fix only raised the cap to 163fps. For players with high-end systems who want to push beyond that, the mod ‘Uncap FPS’ by Kraff is the perfect solution.

Uncap FPS completely removes the frame rate ceiling, allowing you to take full advantage of powerful hardware and ultra-high refresh rate monitors. Whether you’re aiming for buttery-smooth 240fps gameplay or just want to squeeze every drop of performance, this mod makes it possible.

Best of all, unlike many performance mods, Uncap FPS works seamlessly with the Enhanced version of GTA 5—no compatibility issues or workarounds required.

7. Visual Paradise

If you’ve ever played GTA 5 on the PS3 or Xbox 360, you’ll know the game had a very different look and feel compared to the PC version. From lighting to textures and environmental effects, many visual elements were noticeably different in the early console builds.

If you’re feeling nostalgic or just curious about how the game originally looked, the mod ‘Visual Paradise’ by Alex106 is exactly what you need. This mod faithfully recreates the visual style of the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, giving GTA 5 a retro-gen makeover that’s both unique and atmospheric.

It’s a great way to relive the original console vibes—this time, with the power of modern hardware.

8. Arthur Morgan Mod

The love fans have for Red Dead Redemption 2—especially the iconic Arthur Morgan—is on a whole different level. And honestly, it’s well deserved. Not only was the game one of the most downloaded titles on PlayStation, but Arthur has cemented himself as one of Rockstar’s most beloved protagonists.

Now, thanks to the mod ‘Arthur Morgan’ by SirDesse, you can bring that legendary outlaw spirit straight into Los Santos. This mod replaces the default character’s head and hair with a fully detailed model of Arthur Morgan, letting you roam the streets of GTA 5 as the man himself.

Take a look at Arthur Morgan in GTA 5—he fits right in:

9. AMG GT Black Series

Let’s shift gears and talk cars—because modder Hammer76 has absolutely nailed it with the addition of the Mercedes AMG GT Black Series to GTA 5. This sleek, high-performance beast doesn’t just look incredible—it’s packed with immersive features that make it feel right at home in Los Santos.

Some standout details include a customized speedometer, breakable glass, realistic reflective mirrors, a fully detailed interior, a working steering wheel, and even hands-on-wheel animation for maximum realism.

This off-road-ready supercar is brought to life in GTA 5 with jaw-dropping attention to detail and customization options that’ll make any car enthusiast grin.

From the high-quality exterior and lighting to the fully modeled interior, engine, and trunk, everything about this mod screams premium. And it’s not just for show—you can actually tune the car to your liking with a wide range of customization features.
