Is Modding GTA 6 Legal? The Quick Answer

Yes - modding GTA 6 is legal on PC, as long as you only use mods in single-player or private sessions. Take-Two's official modding rules permit non-commercial mods for personal use.

Do not play on custom maps in GTA Online. The anti-cheat detects it and automatically bans your account.

Yes, it is OK to sell your original custom maps. Selling maps with ripped Take-Two IP is prohibited. Free maps will remain on GTA6Maps.com, and paid maps will be directed to GTAModding.net.

Custom multiplayer frameworks (FiveM, RAGE MP) use their own private servers, independent from Rockstar's servers, so they are allowed.
