For many GTA fans, the first foray into the series began with GTA 3. Back when it came out, few games were as exciting to play as this one. It founded the open-world sandbox genre and cemented Rockstar's position in the industry.
The PC port of GTA 3, which first came out in 2003, has several disadvantages over the original PS2 version. It has several missing features, as well as leftover issues that have never been fixed. The graphics and gameplay are also some aspects of the game that haven't aged well.
Few players would like to play the vanilla game without any modifications or fixes. Hence, this article features some of the best GTA 3 mods for players to enjoy the game in 2021.

GTA 3: 5 of the best mods for the game as of August 2021
5) Go-Inside-Vehicles Mod
This mod does what its name suggests. Players can get access to the interiors of the subway train, Yankee, Mule, and Ambulance. This is certainly an impressive feature for a game that is two decades old.
4) GTA 3 Natural HD Textures
This mod replaces the in-game graphics with upscaled HD textures. It is almost essential to install a graphics mod before playing GTA 3. The Renderware engine games don't live up to today's standards, and GTA 3 is inarguably one of the worst-looking ones.
Installing this mod makes the game bearable on today's higher resolution monitors.
3) Auto-Save
GTA 3 is already an insanely difficult game. To make it worse, the game lacks any autosave functionality and can crash quite often. If this happens right after completing a mission, it is extremely frustrating.
Installing this mod makes sure that players won't suffer from this issue. Hence, it is considered a rather important mod to have. Despite what the description says, the autosave is always made in Slot 1 and not Slot 7.
2) The Essential Fixes
Quite aptly named, this is a compilation mod pack that includes all the vital mods together. It has all the vital mods like SilentPatch and SkyGFX alongside a host of other essential and optional fixes.
The bugs-riddled game can be played without any issues whatsoever after installing this mod.
1) GTA III Anniversary Edition
Rockstar released an Android and iOS port for GTA 3 to celebrate its 10th anniversary. This game has a host of improvements and fixes that the PC and console versions don't.
There have been plenty of mobile to PC ports that aren't very well-made. This is the best out of the lot, even though it's not a complete conversion.
