2) Prison Mod

Whenever players get arrested in Grand Theft Auto games, they respawn outside a police station in a couple of seconds. However, installing the Prison Mod in GTA 5 lets players experience what happens in between, adding an interesting new dimension to the 2013 title's gameplay.

To get to prision, one must get arrested or press F12 on their keyboard if their wanted level is higher than one star. They can take part in some activities inside, and get out by escaping or via bail.

Interestingly, Grand Theft Auto 6's trailer also began with its protagonist, Lucia, in prison. However, the trailer also gave rise to the infamous GTA 6 controversy involving the Florida Joker.

3) Liberty City V Remix

Los Santos and Blaine County form one of the biggest Grand Theft Auto maps ever made. But players have had a decade to explore it, and Rockstar Games never added new areas. Nevertheless, Grand Theft Auto 4's setting, Liberty City, can be added to the GTA 5 map via the Liberty City V Remix mod.

Once installed, players are free to explore the New York-based setting in Grand Theft Auto 5. The modded Liberty City map also features traffic that makes it feel more lively.

4) Open All Interiors

The dearth of accessible interiors has been one of Grand Theft Auto 5's biggest drawbacks. While its map is big and there are plenty of buildings in Los Santos, many structures don't allow players inside. The Open All Interiors mod fixes this issue to a great extent.

This mod makes many interiors accessible in the game, such as the Lifeinvader office, Tequi-La-La, Sandy Shores Sheriff Department, Lester's house, and the Bahamas Mamas West nightclub.

5) GTA 4 Vigilante Missions

Rockstar Games didn't add vigilante missions in GTA 5. This feature has been a part of several games in the series and was arguably best implemented in Grand Theft Auto 4. Hence, anyone looking for a similar experience can try the GTA 4 Vigilante Missions mod.

Once installed, players can access police computers in cop cars, much like in Grand Theft Auto 4, and then use it to either hunt down criminals or stop a variety of criminal activities.
