GRAND THEFT AUTO V

Superheroes fit perfectly into GTA V’s sandbox of carnage.

Los Santos has a massive crime problem, and no one knows that better than anyone who plays Grand Theft Auto V… because we spend most of our time committing those horrible crimes. But when the thrill of bank heists, chases, and shootouts with the cops get a little on the repetitive side, there’s a super way to freshen things up. Superhero mods!

There’s one small issue with using mods to become a superhero in GTA V, and it’s that the biggest criminal (you) vanishes, leaving the superhero you’ve transformed into without a major villain to defeat. Thankfully, some of the mods here provide a suitable superpowered enemy you can spawn and battle. But even without a supervillain to super-fight, it’s still tons of fun to use incredible powers in GTA V. If you think blowing up cars with a rocket launcher is fun, just wait until you’re doing it with your bare hands.

Plus, you can always pretend the Los Santos Police Department are the bad guys. Considering their general recklessness and tendency to react to minor fender benders with a barrage of gunfire, it’s not much of a stretch.
