YouTuber Recreates GTA VI-Inspired Map in GTA V Despite Possible Takedown

Dark Space, a fan of the Grand Theft Auto series, is developing a Vice City-inspired map using GTA V assets while acknowledging potential legal challenges from Rockstar's parent company, Take-Two Interactive.

  • YouTuber Dark Space is recreating a map inspired by GTA VI's leaked Vice City setting entirely within GTA V, using only assets from the latter game.
  • The project includes the nearly completed Vice Beach area, with plans to add the Venetian Islands next, and is expected to be finished by mid-February 2025.
  • Dark Space asserts that the project is fan-made and does not involve remastering or porting assets from other GTA titles, which have led to takedowns in the past.
  • Take-Two Interactive, known for taking action against fan projects, has not yet commented on whether it will allow the map to remain available upon completion.
  • GTA VI is officially slated for release in late 2025, but fans remain eager for updates following the game's 2023 announcement trailer.
