If you hadn’t heard, a modding team which goes by the name of .White had been working on a mod for GTA V, known as Red Dead Rededmption V. And you guessed right, it was an attempt to recreate the critically acclaimed wild west title’s map inside of GTA V.
Revealed last month, a beta for the mod was planned to be released this summer. However, shortly after .White released a trailer for the mod (which they took down quickly), lead modder Mr Leisurewear announced that sadly, the project had been cancelled.
“I know this is hard pill to swallow, but as you may have noticed we did get contacted,” Mr. Leisurewear wrote on GTAForums.com. “And we sadly have to say we are stopping this project. So thanks guys, we were all so happy to see this, but it isn’t going to happen, sorry.” He later revealed that they had been contacted by Take Two, and clarified that the mod was never going to be a complete PC port.
“It was just gonna be the map,” he explained. “Undertaking this sort of a project with additional content ported over was never feasible… we were only gonna get a way to convert the map with both legal copies of each game, and some custom scripted additional content… there was never any intention or mention to either port a story mode over from RDR to V.”
