Take-Two Shuts Down a Fan-Made GTA 5 Port That Ran Natively on Switch

Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar's parent company, took legal action against Paralympics Productions, the modding team led by M0jso that built an unofficial native GTA 5 port for the original Nintendo Switch. The port ran at 10 to 25fps, up to 30fps on overclocked OLED units, with no streaming or emulation. The team confirmed the action on September 28 and will shut down on October 3. M0jso admitted Take-Two had solid grounds.
