GTA 5 Free New Single-Player Content Is Going To Change Everything

Grand Theft Auto VI is set to debut later this year, while a free expansion for Grand Theft Auto V is being released to keep players engaged. GTA V lacked single-player story expansions, which fans have long desired. A new modding tool called RPFKit is being introduced for PC players, replacing OpenIV and offering features like a world editor and file editing capabilities. This toolkit will allow players to create and explore mods, including the possibility of recreating the map of GTA VI in GTA V. The community is excited about RPFKit, as it provides a modern alternative for modding. There is speculation about whether GTA VI's PC port will support mods, as Rockstar has historically been more lenient with single-player mods compared to GTA: Online.

Rocket League has a new Easy Anti-Cheat addition, and it still works on the Steam Deck — it’s about time for other game Devs to follow suit

Psyonix has integrated Easy Anti-Cheat into Rocket League while supporting Linux platforms. Although Rocket League is no longer available on Steam, it can still be played on SteamOS through the Epic Games platform using Proton for compatibility. Other titles like Battlefield 6, Call of Duty, and EA Sports FC 26 are not accessible on SteamOS due to compatibility issues with anti-cheat systems. Psyonix's efforts may encourage other developers to improve Linux support. Emerging titles like Splitgate: Arena Reloaded and Rocket League are contributing to broader Linux compatibility, but challenges remain due to some publishers' reluctance to invest in these solutions.
