GTA 5 gets massive map expansion that lets you explore a new city

A new map expansion for GTA V is exactly what we needed from Rockstar Games

GTA V players on PC can explore an entirely new location, never seen in the Grand Theft Auto world before.

It’ll be a good day when GTA VI releases on PC, as I’m certain modders are going to have a field day picking it apart and seeing what can be done with it.

Check out the trailer for GTA VI below

That was the story with GTA V when it first received a PC port, as like most Rockstar Games the Xbox and PlayStation versions of the game came first.

Modders have done some pretty impressive things with the game over the years, so much that it almost makes up for the fact that Rockstar has done little with the game outside of adding new content to GTA Online.

One stunning creation is called Windy City, a map expansion mod you can download right now for free.

Simply put Windy City is an original, playable area based on real-life Chicago, and it’s perfect for those who’ve gotten a bit bored of the Los Santos sights and sounds.

It’s obviously not as advanced as what Rockstar would create but it has plenty to see, including some of Chicago’s famous landmarks, like Trump Tower, the Millenium Park and more.

The expansion even has working traffic and NPCs to make the city a bit more lifelike, and there are a few stores to visit as well.

Now it’s not exactly the remade Liberty City or Vice City that fans might have wanted, but it’s better than nothing, which again is what Rockstar has given us in terms of single-player expansions.

The GTA V Windy City mod can be downloaded and played right now, and it’s occasionally updated with new additions so it’s worth checking back in from time to time to see what progress has been made.
