Update Highlights

This update brings 2 new mountable games to Garry's Mod: The Stanley Parable and Fistful of Frags. You can now mount them into your game directly from the main menu, provided you own them on Steam and have them installed. This update also addresses a long standing issue of voice chat quality. With the changes in this update hopefully voice chat in Garry's Mod will sound much better than it used to. The new changes may cause the voice chat to be quieter than it used to be, but this is something that people will need to adjust in either the updated Voice options tab or in their PC microphone settings. It is necessary to be this way to improve audio quality. As usual this update also brings a whole host of new features and improvements for modders and players alike. The update is optional for server owners, however it is always a good idea to keep your server updated to receive all the latest fixes and features. You will find the full change list for this update in our blog post: https://gmod.facepunch.com/blog/april-2020-update

Garry's Mod is a physics sandbox. There aren't any predefined aims or goals. We give you the tools and leave you to play.

You spawn objects and weld them together to create your own contraptions - whether that's a car, a rocket, a catapult or something that doesn't have a name yet - that's up to you. You can do it offline, or join the thousands of players who play online each day.

If you're not too great at construction - don't worry! You can place a variety of characters in silly positions. But if you want to do more, we have the means.

Beyond the Sandbox

The Garry's Mod community is a tremendous source of content and has added hundreds of unique modes to the game. In Trouble In Terrorist Town, you can be a detective solving an online murder as criminals attempt to cover up their homicides. Be a ball, a plant, a chair, or anything else in Prop Hunt's elaborate, shape-shifting game of Hide & Seek. Elevator: Source is gaming's first elevator thrill ride, delivering players to airlocks and kitten dance parties.

We have one of the most vibrant Steam Community Workshops, with over 300'000 models, maps, and contraptions to download. It has everything from new tools to improve your builds, to guns that fire rainbow-tinged nuclear blasts from space. Take as much or as little as you need: it’s all free.

Please note: Some multiplayer servers and game-modes might require you to own other games - such as Counter-Strike: Source and Team Fortress 2.
