This can help keep the game more interesting for players and keep them playing longer. In the long term, this means more game sales and therefore more revenue for Rockstar Games.
In addition, there is also a community of FiveM developers, who are constantly creating new content for the modification. This content is usually free and available to all FiveM users.
