Could you build this?
No Porting a massive AAA x86/64 game engine (GTA V) natively to iOS/ARM64 and Metal requires world-class reverse engineering, low-level graphics translation, and deep memory optimization.
What it would actually take: Building this requires decompiling or reverse-engineering the RAGE engine, rewriting the DirectX 11 rendering pipeline into Metal, optimizing memory paging for iOS's strict RAM limits, and re-architecting physics and asset streaming for mobile ARM architecture. It demands top-tier console/game engine systems engineers and months of low-level assembly and graphics debugging.
