Modder adds Rick and Morty's Rick to GTA5

And that's the waaaaay the news goes!

Next week Oculus Rift and HTC Vive owners will get a chance to play Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-Ality, but those without VR headsets may find themselves going through Rick withdrawals. Thankfully, Grand Theft Auto 5 modder Jedidiah515 has a solution and has added the popular Adult Swim character to Rockstar's open-world crime game.
