Rockstar Games surprised their fans by telling them that the team behind the Grand Theft Auto 5 mods, like FiveM and RedM, is now part of the Rockstar team. These mods let players do special roleplaying servers that many players like.
Fans were happy about this news because a lot of people enjoy roleplaying. Since Cfx.re is now with Rockstar, we don’t know what they will do next. They haven’t told us any more information or plans for the future.
Rockstar Games Acquires Cfx.re, Developers of GTA 5 RP Mod Tools
Rockstar Games shared on Twitter that they’ve joined forces with Cfx.re, the folks who made the GTA 5 RP mod tools FiveM and RedM. They noticed how much people love playing GTA 5 on role-playing servers, so they decided to help. Rockstar changed their rules about mods to help the RP community even more.
Today, we are proud to announce that https://t.co/RIDVpeoqCS — the team behind the biggest Rockstar roleplay and creator communities, FiveM and RedM — are now officially a part of Rockstar Games: https://t.co/PqVyvdsjIX pic.twitter.com/gd3ETq9iwx

Rockstar said they’ll share more details in the next few weeks and months. This surprised fans because before, the company that owns Rockstar (Take-Two Interactive) got upset with modders who changed their games.

But wait, because Rockstar Games has taken over Cfx.re, players can look forward to having a better time pretending in games in the future.
What’s cool is that this takeover might not just be about Grand Theft Auto 5. Since Cfx.re knows a lot about making servers for pretending and lots of people like that, Rockstar might want to put acting into Grand Theft Auto 6 on purpose.
But we don’t know anything about RP servers or the next game in the series. People play on special servers for GTA 5 called RP servers. Some servers are run by a thing called FiveM.
Lots of new players join these servers every day. A few of these servers have famous people from YouTube and Twitch playing on them. This makes more people interested in them. Since Rockstar Games is helping, the future looks good for the GTA 5 RP community.
