I Recreated GTA V in Minecraft Hardcore!

This Took a Year
I Built The GTA V Island in Hardcore Minecraft.
450 hours of gameplay, 1000+ hours in the edit, $3000 spent yet this video was so fun to make, the amount of creativity and fun ideas I was able to put in this year long project was insane. i really hope you all enjoy this video. the next one won’t take that long to make, i promise.

To celebrate the upcoming Release of GTA 6. I recreated Grand Theft Auto in Hardcore Minecraft. But there is a twist! It's the old GTA 5, with the Los Santos, Vinewood, Mount Chilliad and many more locations recreated in Survival Minecraft. This is a new original Hardcore Serie idea like Beppo, Sandiction and Wunba. Not Rekrap2 or ParrotX2 with The LifeSteal SMP or Hermitcraft with MumboJumbo and Grian.

[@cosmiccaleb9633]

@@johnpark1236 If thats the case, I would subscribe to every damn creator on this god forsaken platform. But because it would be stupid for me to do so. When I subscribe to people, its not like I watch every single video they will make here on out. I can just tell that Zenith put in the hard work and has genuine passion for this. And because it was entertaining to me, I (by looking at his past content) will assume he will be making more content like this. But so I wont forget this series in this creator in the content sea. I place down a "Subscription Anchor" so I could watch a new video when it comes out.

I did the math here and would take 9.1 years of 10 players building 8 hours per day to recreate the entire GTA V map with most of the details. To manually recreate the GTA V map in Minecraft: • Map Size: 80 km² • Total Blocks Needed: Approximately 1.6 billion blocks •Single Player Time: ~91 years of continuous work (8 hours/day) • 10-Player Team Time: ~9.1 years of continuous work.
