alt:V is a multiplayer modification framework for Grand Theft Auto V, enabling custom servers focused on RPG, open-world, and roleplay experiences. While it launched in 2017, it serves a niche but active modding community, similar to FiveM and RageMP, but is less popular. Its player base is split across many small servers, with concurrency rarely surpassing a few thousand. Estimated daily active users across all servers is around 4,000, as reflected in server trackers and community engagement.
