GTA 5 was released in 2013, and more than a decade after its release, the Rockstar Games title is still going strong due to its online mode. To the surprise of many, the game appears to be on its way to Nintendo Switch, but not through official means.
Thanks to a GTA 5 source code leak in December 20223, a group of modders have begun working on a port of the game for the Nintendo Switch. Currently, only a 21-second video has been posted online.

As you can see from the video above, the port is currently in the early stages of development and can only be accessed from the game's main menu. Furthermore, some error messages are displayed because the rest of the code, including the Runnable Part, is not executed.
The group responsible for the GTA 5 port has not been revealed
Despite posting the video on In contrast, in X, the Superstar South group claims ownership of the port and shows that they have access to the Nintendo Switch toolset to carry out the work.
