SuperMan Mod for GTA IV

The Superman Mod for Grand Theft Auto IV turns the official game into a fun superhero game that helps you save the world.

Released in 2008, Grand Theft Auto lets you play as a former war hero returning from overseas with a dark past. As you explore Liberty City by car or on foot, you'll run across loan sharks, mob bosses, and other nefarious enemies who want nothing more than to bring you down. You can steal cars, make money, and even interact with other characters within the game. Though the Superman Mod isn't an official release from the developers, it does increase the exciting action of the original game.

With this mod, you press a single button on your keyboard to transform your character into the Man of Steel himself. Not only do you get to wear the costume, but you get to fly through the skies above Liberty City. In the same way that you use the keyboard to control a helicopter in the game, you use those same keys to control your character. You can also press a second button and control where you go with your own mouse.

As exciting as playing as Clark Kent sounds, you may have a hard time understanding how to install this mod. Once the download finishes, you need to open the game's folders, copy the files from the download, and add those files to that folder. Though this might sound complicated, keep in mind that the developers included a simple file that walks you through all the steps of adding this mod to the game.

Another common issue is that this mod really doesn't do anything. While it will let you fly through the skies and play as either Clark Kent or Superman, it doesn't add any new levels or modes of play to the game. It lacks any support for collisions too, which means that instead of crashing into helicopters or bringing down the planes of your enemies, your character will simply float right through those vehicles without doing any damage. If you love the Superman comics or films though and always wanted to channel your inner superhero, this Superman Mod for Grand Theft Auto IV is a must have.
