The author of the mod is already known for his previous work on “GTA 4”, where he released other mods that allowed players to take on the roles of various superheroes. Currently, he’s focused on developing the “Iron Man” mod for “GTA 5” further.
It’s still in an early phase of development, although the author has already implemented various features that make it very playable. There are different tools at the player’s disposal, and even though some of them haven’t been implemented fully yet, it’s still a good enough mod to kill some time.
Of course, the mod is only available on the PC version of the game, as it’s the only version of “GTA 5” that can be modded right now. Console players are out of luck and it’s not very likely that they’re going to get any alternative anytime soon, as the game doesn’t support any modding on console platforms.
Just one more reason to enjoy the extra capabilities that the PC offers to us, and it’s good to see that Rockstar have been focusing more heavily on producing quality PC titles lately, after seemingly shifting their focus to the console market for a period of time around the release of “GTA 4”. Which, understandably, disappointed many fans back then since the studio rose to prominence thanks to their PC titles in the first place.
