5 best Assassin's Creed mods to try in GTA 5 in 2025
1) Assassin's Creed Sword

While the sword has been a part of many Grand Theft Auto titles in the past, Rockstar Games did not add it to GTA 5. However, with this mod, you can bring the sword from Assassin’s Creed Unity to the PC version of the 2013 Rockstar title.
You can use the sword to melee fight with various enemies in the game. It also has animations for blood splatters.
2) Connor Kenway Assassin's Creed 3
If you've ever wanted to roam the GTA 5 map as Connor Kenway, this is the best mod for you. It features a skin that completely transforms the game's protagonist(s) to resemble that of Assassin's Creed 3. The developer seemingly put a heavy emphasis on design, as the character looks highly detailed.
You can use all the features the vanilla GTA game has to offer. Most importantly, you can jump from buildings and land with parachutes.

3) Assassin's Creed Apprentice Assassin
One of the hidden features of GTA San Andreas was that you can hire gang members. While Rockstar Games did not include it in GTA 5, you can use the Assassin's Creed Apprentice Assassin mod for a similar experience.
The mod spawns an NPC that fights with enemies on your behalf. You can use this feature while fighting with gang members or the cops in Grand Theft Auto 5.

4) Assassin's Creed Blimp

While the blimp is one of the most iconic things in Los Santos’ sky, you can replace it with an Assassin's Creed-themed model with this mod for GTA 5. The best part is that the developer also allows you to fly it and explore the entire open world.
You can also try the famous blimp strategy in Grand Theft Auto 5 with the Assassin's Creed Blimp mod.
5) Assassin's Creed Tomahawk
While Rockstar Games already offers a hatchet in Grand Theft Auto 5, you can replace it with the Tomahawk axe from the Assassin's Creed series. It is a very detailed weapon that you can use for melee fighting.
You can go on a killing spree in GTA 5 with the Tomahawk. However, keep in mind that it does not have special abilities like the Stone Hatchet from GTA Online.
