Rockstar has published updated instructions for modding, telling creators to “respect our games.” The guidance, which appears in modding guidelines shared earlier this month, emphasizes boundaries around what kinds of modifications are acceptable.
The update comes as discussion around Rockstar titles continues and as attention builds toward Grand Theft Auto 6. PC Gamer frames the message as a direct request to modders to take Rockstar’s games seriously, while Kotaku highlights that Rockstar is tightening or clarifying expectations for fan-made content. Across the coverage, the common focus is on Rockstar’s reminder of what it considers inappropriate under its modding terms, alongside the company’s broader effort to manage how user-created changes relate to its properties.
While the outlets differ in emphasis—one focusing on the tone of the request and the other on the timing relative to GTA 6—they both report that Rockstar is updating its modding rules and asking the community to comply with them.
