Take-Two Forces GTA 5 Multiplayer Platform Rage:MP to Shut Down and Migrate to FiveM

2026-07-04 · Source: press

Take-Two Interactive has mandated that the GTA V multiplayer mod platform Rage:MP cease operations and transition its user base to FiveM, according to a report by IGN. The move follows Take-Two’s directive to align community-modded multiplayer activity under the FiveM platform, which has long been a popular alternative for GTA V online experiences. Rage:MP, launched in 2018, allowed players to host custom GTA V multiplayer servers but will now shut down to comply with the publisher’s requirements. FiveM developers confirmed the migration but provided no timeline for Rage:MP’s closure. The shift centralizes modded GTA V multiplayer activity, potentially streamlining development and support for community-driven content. For players awaiting GTA 6’s November 19, 2026, release, the change could influence pre-launch multiplayer ecosystems and modder resources typically diverted to GTA V alternatives.
