A First-Person GTA 5 Looks Like This

Rockstar Games’ acclaimed open-world game Grand Theft Auto V is a third-person game, but what would it look like if you controlled Michael, Trevor, and Franklin from a first-person perspective? Now we know, thanks to YouTube user XBLToothPik (via Eurogamer), who has published a pair of videos (above and below) showing the familiar world of Los Santos from an entirely new perspective.

Using a modded Xbox 360, XBLToothPik made use of a script to change the perspective. It’s a bit rough. But if you’ve ever wondered what walking the streets of Los Santos or piloting a plane above the mountains of Blaine County looks like from a first-person perspective, here’s your chance. You can also imagine the possibility for virtual reality.

With GTA V coming to PC later this year, you can expect the modding community to have a field day with unique and imaginative mods–just like it did for Grand Theft Auto IV. There’s no word yet on when specifically this fall the PC version–or Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions for that matter–will be released.
