What is GTA RP? How to watch and play GTA V roleplay explained

radiotimes.com:

If you’ve played GTA Online to death since its launch back in October 2013 but want to dive back in to try something new, you may well want to check out GTA V roleplay. This begs the question: What is GTA RP?

While there are many different mods and cheats available in Grand Theft Auto 5, the roleplay mod is probably the most exciting one when it comes to GTA Online. You may have seen some of your favourite streamers playing the game and want to join in on the fun yourself. Luckily for you, we’re here to help you with precisely that.

Here is everything you need to know about GTA RP, including how to watch GTA RP, how to play it, and how to download it.

Available on the PC version of the game only, GTA RP is a roleplay multiplayer mod for GTA V. Essentially, the mod allows you to take control of a customisable in-game NPC and play the role of a specific character.

Want to play as a shopkeeper? The mod has you covered. A police officer? Sure. Thanks to the various servers for the mod you can choose whatever role you’d like to play. Most of the time, you’ll be asked quite politely to keep to your job and not do whatever you’d like. You don’t want the role-playing cops on your tail, now, do you?

This is where it gets a little complicated. You will need to make sure you have downloaded and installed the correct mod for the specific roleplay you have in mind. There are a few out there, with popular mods including FiveM, Grand Theft Multiplayer, and others.

We’d argue it’s worth sticking with FiveM as that mod contains plenty of GTA RP opportunities, including the UK roleplay server. Once downloaded, you need to join an RP server and you might even need to be invited in.
