The modifications have several hundred active players so far, which is quite a far cry from PUBG itself. While the PS2 and Xbox editions of the game had a very limited co-op game mode, few could have predicted that multiplayer modifications would still be drawing players into San Andreas some 13 years after the game's release.īoth modifications take heavy inspiration from PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, with plenty of visual elements and menu systems that seem to be as close of a copy as one could get within the San Andreas environment. The developers claim to be working on damage modifications and new animations, helping breathe new life into a game that launched on PC without a multiplayer mode. It's clear that the respective modding teams have already added plenty of new content, but they're not done working on the PUBG-inspired modifications yet. The large pool of pedestrians and vehicles also open seemingly limitless possibilities for those customizing their characters, especially when it comes to loot drops.

Players jumping into the carnage in one of the two prominent San Andreas Battle Royale modifications can expect tons of new inventory items that come in varying qualities, loot pickups, stats, and even the iconic frying pan weapon via the Multi Theft Auto-based modification. Interested gamers can take a look at the Battle Royale modifications below:

The setting compliments the idea of a Battle Royale situation so much that two different multiplayer mods have now risen to prominence: one utilizes the pre-existing San Andreas multiplayer modification from 2006, and the other powers its multiplayer with the Multi Theft Auto tool from 2003, which actually got its start with Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City. The title already has everything from a massive open world and customizable vehicles to weapons, parachutes, and even a jetpack for those fortunate enough to find it. Now, a dedicated team of modders is doing the same for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, despite the title being close to 15 years old. Even Rockstar Games implemented a heavily Battlegrounds-inspired minigame in Grand Theft Auto: Online, with the game's massive world and variety of vehicles being a perfect fit for such a scenario. It's not hard to see the battle royale genre is hitting a high note, with games like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Fortnite, and The Culling all pulling in massive amounts of players.
