Can you play GTA RP on console?
Many Grand Theft Auto 5 players will be wondering if they can play GTA RP on console, as it's become a massively popular way to play the game on PC.
Grand Theft Auto 5 has been one of the most popular games of all time, and remains one of the most-played games in the world even ten years on from its original release date. A large part of its current popularity is due in part to role-playing servers that encourage players to inhabit the world they are in.
If you are a console player and want to try out GTA RP, you'll be wondering if its even possible at all, so read on to find out.
Can you play GTA RP on console?
Click to enlargeYes, you can play GTA RP on console, but it's worth noting the experience is massively different to PC, with much more limited options.
This is due to the most popular GTA RP mods, FiveM and RageMP, not having their mod clients available on console, meaning players can only do RP on United Network servers which have reduced role-playing capabilities. However, Rockstar Games announced on August 11 that it acquired Cfx.re, which is the team behind the biggest roleplay communities of FiveM and RedM.
Rockstar hasn't shared all the details yet, but this opens up the possibility of the RP mods coming to console and the next iteration of GTA whenever it releases, meaning console players may finally get the same role-playing experience as PC users.
