Rockstar has created a vibrant, open world for GTA 5, making it the ideal playground for using mods. Some of the best GTA 5 mods allow players to access different types of characters, introduce natural disasters into the game, improve performance and visuals, and much more. If you still need to learn how to install mods for GTA 5, you can check out Insider Gaming’s guide to learn how to do so. Without further ado, let’s get into the Top 10 GTA 5 mods list in no particular order.
Players should always back up their files before adding mods. Some of the best GTA 5 mods are on gta5-mods.com, Nexus Mods, and various other websites.
GTA 5 Character Mods
You can’t make a GTA 5 best mods list without discussing character mods. Also, one character isn’t enough, so we will see the top characters you can play as in GTA 5 through mods.
- The first would be Iron Man Mark V, which allows players to play as the man in the Iron Suit and use his abilities.
- Next, we have our friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man. Spider-Man V allows players to dress up as the character, swing around Los Santos, and use other abilities.
- Last is Hulk, and the Hulk Script will enable players to smash everything that comes their way while appearing as the green Goliath.
GTA 5 Vehicle Mods
Like character mods, vehicle mods allow players to change their appearance and add other exciting stuff in GTA 5.
- First, we have Tesla’s Cybertruck, which will enable layers to drive Elon Musk’s futuristic pick-up truck, outfitted with high-quality interiors and exteriors.
- Vehicle Jetpack is a mod that adds a GTA San Andreas-style Jet Pack to any of your vehicles.
- The third mod is the Funny Vehicle Mod, which randomly changes your car to vehicles like Flinstones, Herbie, Batmobile, DeLorean, Speeder Bike, X-wing, and more.
Ragdoll/Limp on Demand
This GTA 5 mod is for having fun, just seeing how characters appear when they ragdoll across the map. Adding this mod will allow players to rag doll until stationary, and the best place to activate Ragdoll/Limp on Demand is when you are on top of Mount Chilliad. Players can also use this mod to toggle ragdoll physics too.
Prison Mod
This GTA 5 mod adds another layer of excitement to the police system Rockstar has in play. After activating the Prison Mod, players can get arrested and taken to the Bolingbroke Penitentiary State Prison. Here, players can either bail themselves out by switching to another character and paying the fine or orchestrate a prison riot to escape without spending money.
Online Vehicles in Single Player
If you are bored of using the same old vehicles in GTA 5’s single-player mode, you can try the Online Vehicles in Single Player mod. This mod will bring vehicles from GTA Online to the regular Los Santos traffic so that players can use these vehicles in the single-player mode.

GTA V Remastered: Enhanced
Now, this mod is solely for improving GTA 5’s visuals. GTA 5 has been out there for over a decade, so the graphics are outdated. Rockstar did introduce a next-gen upgrade for the title recently, but the GTA V Remastered: Enhanced allows you to take things to the next level. This mod will add new high-resolution textures and assets to Los Santos, allowing you to experience the city entirely new.
Character Menu
This is another character mod for GTA 5, but it differs slightly from the previous ones. The Character Menu allows players to turn into any NPC from the game and change their clothing and other features. More than 500 NPCs are available in the roster, with more than 350 customisation options.
LSPD First Response
You saw the GTA 5 Prison Mod; now it’s time to check out the police mod. GTA is all about living the life of a criminal, but have you ever imagined how it would feel to play as police instead? The LSPD First Response mod does just that, allowing you to live your dream of becoming a police officer who solves crimes across the violent streets of Los Santos.
Chaos Mods
You may have encountered ‘Chaos Mods‘ if you have searched for GTA 5 mods on YouTube. These mods allow players to experience something completely random every thirty seconds. These could range from vehicles shooting out of your RPG to NPCs dancing on the streets. Other mods that can induce chaos in GTA include the No Water + Tsunami + Atlantis Mod and Mayhem / Carmageddon Mod.
The No Water + Tsunami + Atlantis mod will create a drought or a tsunami or uncover Atlantis’s lost city, adding chaos and a layer of exploration.
On the other hand, the Mayhem / Carmageddon Mod is for players who want to see destruction unfold in GTA 5, with vehicles crashing into each other and causing explosions across Los Santos.
Open All Interior
Last but not least is the Open All Interior mod; this is for the more curious players. Open All Interior does precisely what its name says, opening almost all interiors across GTA 5. Players can explore the title like never before, with access to cancelled interiors found later in the game files.
And that concludes the list. What GTA mods will you be downloading first? Let us know in the comments. For more Insider Gaming, check out the latest news you need to know.
