Rockstar Games has introduced the Cfx Marketplace, a new digital storefront designed for modders and creators working on the multiplayer roleplay servers RedM and FiveM. Launched on January 12, the platform allows selected creators—currently about 16, with six more expected soon—to share and sell their mods.

The Cfx Marketplace features a mix of free and premium mods. Some premium offerings, such as the “Theme Park DLC,” are priced at $129.99, while creator packs can reach up to $389.99. This launch marks a significant milestone in the evolving relationship between Rockstar and the modding community, particularly for FiveM (for Grand Theft Auto V) and RedM (for Red Dead Redemption 2).

Historically, Rockstar and its parent company, Take-Two, had a contentious stance toward these servers, labeling FiveM in 2015 as “an unauthorized alternate multiplayer server that contains code to facilitate piracy.” However, by 2022, Rockstar publicly supported roleplaying servers in Grand Theft Auto Online, describing them as “an extension of the rich array of community-created experiences” and clarifying guidelines, including restrictions on commercial exploitation—prohibiting the sale of in-game items for real-world money.

In 2023, Rockstar acquired Cfx.re, the team behind the FiveM and RedM servers, with the aim of further supporting the community and enhancing services for both developers and players. Following the acquisition, Rockstar officially endorsed mods created by roleplayers from both communities. Cfx.re described the acquisition as “a huge step forward in the growth of our community, and an opportunity for us to work with Rockstar Games to advance the FiveM platform and the creative community surrounding it.”

In related news, a day after the marketplace launch, a group of former Rockstar employees who allege they were dismissed for unionizing were denied interim pay at a preliminary UK employment tribunal, after opting to challenge their dismissal in court.
