Helix
Designed for creators and players alike, Helix includes integrated server hosting, custom map and asset support, and a powerful Lua-based scripting API—making it easy to build anything from gritty modern cities to fantastical medieval kingdoms. The opportunity is vast: FiveM, the most popular multiplayer mod on GTA V, has more active players than GTA on Steam and reached a record 300,000 concurrent players in January 2024. Helix is built to empower the roleplay community with a stable, open, and modder-friendly home where creativity thrives without compromise.
Helix is already attracting top talent from the GTA modding, and FiveM RP scene, including the team, lead behind the viral success of the Liberty City Preservation Project. This mod, that ports GTA IV's world into GTA V, was infamously shut down by Rockstar after gaining traction with major streamers. Additionally, njkellman, the team lead on the Liberty City Preservation Project, has partnered with Helix to develop one of the first experiences on the platform. Early reactions from top creators highlight what makes Helix stand out: a community-driven platform designed for both roleplayers and the builders powering RP behind the scenes. Notably, Kakarot, creator of QBCore—the most widely used FiveM roleplay framework, powering over 25,000 servers —has officially ported QBCore to Helix, making the platform both instantly familiar and accessible to developers.
