FAQ

Are AI merge games real or fake?

Many are real. The MW2, Skate 3 and Minecraft mashup, SkyCraft and Mario in Elden Ring all have public code and downloads on GitHub. Some viral clips, including the original Minecraft in Elden Ring video, have never been released. Every entry on this site is labelled Playable, Build it yourself or Video only.

Do I need to own both games?

Almost always, yes. Legitimate mashup mods never include game files. They read the files from your own installed copies, the same way Garry’s Mod needed other Source games back in 2004. Each mashup page lists exactly which games, versions and platforms you need.

Is it safe to download AI game mashups?

Only from the creator’s own repository. Fake look-alike repositories appeared within days of the trend. We link the official page for every project and never re-upload anything. Back up your saves before installing, and never run an unsigned .exe from an account created the same week.

Can I get banned for playing these mods?

Not if you stay offline. Most mashups only run with anti-cheat switched off, and the creators are explicit that they must never be taken online. Games such as Elden Ring and GTA V can ban accounts that join online play with modified files.

Do AI merge games work on Mac?

Most are Windows only, because the host games are Windows PC games. The Minecraft Crossover Bridge is the exception: it runs Minecraft inside Elden Ring or Monster Hunter World on Apple Silicon Macs through CrossOver. Use the finder and pick Mac.

Can I merge two games myself with AI?

Yes, if you are patient. Tools like Claude Code with the open-source universal-modder toolkit can identify a game’s engine, decompile it and build a mod. You still need to own the games and to judge what feels right. The AI cannot. Read the step-by-step guide.

Are AI game mashups legal?

It is a grey area. Reverse engineering for compatibility is allowed in some places, but distributing a publisher’s files or characters is not, and publishers can demand takedowns. Fans who rebuilt GTA 3 and Vice City were hit with a DMCA takedown in 2021. That is why every project here asks you to bring your own games.

I made a mashup. Can you list it?

Yes. Send us the official repository or video link. We read the README, check what you need to own, and add it with the right status label. We never list projects that bundle game files.Email us

Wither Storm in GTA 5

Minecraft's Wither Storm mod tearing through Los Santos, pulling GTA cars and people into the sky.

Official source code

★ 11 · updated Oct 5, 2026 · mc-gta5

Links to the creator's own GitHub page, checked Oct 7, 2026. We never host or re-upload files, and no game files are included. Re-uploads and look-alike repos can carry malware.

A modified build of the Minecraft–GTA V passthrough from universal-modder, rebuilt around one monster: Cracker’s Wither Storm. The storm runs inside Minecraft and is drawn into GTA V, and the bridge makes Los Santos react.

What it does

  • The real Wither Storm grows, fires tractor beams and consumes things, all simulated by Minecraft.
  • Nearby GTA pedestrians and cars get invisible Minecraft stand-ins. When the storm grabs one, its GTA counterpart is lifted into the air; when consumed, it disappears from GTA.
  • Fireballs and skulls cause GTA explosions, with storm weather, lightning and fleeing crowds.
  • GTA’s buildings and roads stay intact. It does not carve craters into the map.

What you need

  • GTA V Legacy in Story Mode with BattlEye disabled. GTA V Enhanced is not supported, and ScriptHookV does not work in GTA Online.
  • Minecraft: Java Edition 1.20.1 with Forge 47.4.10 and JDK 17, in a dedicated launcher instance.
  • Cracker’s Wither Storm Mod 4.2.1, downloaded separately from CurseForge.
  • ScriptHookV and ReShade 6.8.0 with add-on support.
  • Visual Studio 2022 build tools and WSL to compile and install.

Playing

Start the Forge instance and let it load its world, then start GTA V Story Mode. In GTA, F9 summons a storm, Shift+F9 summons an already-grown one, F10 advances its phase and F11 removes it.

Setup reality check

This is a source-only project with a long build guide. Expect an evening of setup, not a double-click.
