Modder ‘DeadpoolMKD’ has released a new video for Grand Theft Auto Carcer City, showcasing its visual enhancements. Compared to GTA Vice City, GTA Carcer City will have improved shadows and specular vehicle lighting.
Grand Theft Auto Carcer City aims to have the biggest and most detailed city ever seen in the 3D-era GTA games. The story follows a former police officer who gets pulled into Carcer City’s dangerous criminal world. The city is falling apart—businesses are closing, important systems are failing, gangs are taking control, and staying alive is never guaranteed.
Going into even more details, the mod drops players into a completely reimagined world inspired by Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and the dark levels from Manhunt. Every street will show signs of struggle, from broken factories and dangerous back alleys to glowing neon bars trying to survive in the ruins. The story takes place in 2001 and features an original plot set in the harsh, violent world of Carcer City. You’ll explore a city filled with gangs, corruption, and people fighting to get by. In this broken place, the only way to rise is to be tough enough to take every chance you get.
The modder plans to release a demo for Grand Theft Auto Carcer City on March 9th. So, in just two days, you will be able to play it yourselves.
For what it’s worth, Take-Two and Rockstar have not sent him a DMCA yet. So, there is a chance we might still get the demo. It would be funny if the companies sent him a DMCA notice a week before the mod comes out, though. That would be a really cruel thing to do. But hey, this is Take-Two we’re talking about.
Before someone says that Take-Two does not shut down this type of mods, back in August 2023, they did shut down a story-driven mod for GTA 5. Let’s also not forget that they attempted to shut down FiveM. But wait, there is more. In July 2022, they tried to take down the VR Mods for Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA 5, and Mafia. On top of that, they took down GTA Underground and other GTA San Andreas & Vice City mods.
Speaking of GTA: San Andreas, here are some other cool mods for it. Multi Theft Auto is an open-source software project that adds full online support to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Modders are also experimenting with RTX Remix Path Tracing. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Mission Maker is another cool mod that lets you create your own missions. And then we have the SA_DirectX 3.0 Beta Overhaul Mod that adds SSR, SSAO, and Rain Drops. Finally, you can download this mod that allows you to play it in VR.
Enjoy the video and stay tuned for more!
