The Future of GMod, S&box, and Where VyHub Fits In

For nearly two decades, Garry’s Mod has been the ultimate sandbox playground, fueling countless servers, game modes, and community-driven experiences. But with S&box—Facepunch’s next-gen evolution—on the horizon, the big question is:

What’s next for the sandbox gaming community? And more importantly, how does VyHub fit into this future?

GMod: The Timeless Classic

GMod has stood the test of time, thanks to its thriving community and endless modding possibilities. Even with S&box in development, GMod isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Servers, game modes, and **monetization-friendly features ** (like rank purchases and webshops) will keep it alive for years.

VyHub continues to be the go-to tool for GMod server owners, helping them automate purchases, manage players, and monetize fairly without Pay-2-Win issues.

S&box: The Next Generation?

S&box is not just a successor to GMod—it’s a full game engine, allowing players to create standalone games and multiplayer experiences with Source 2 and C# scripting. The big unknown? How multiplayer servers will evolve and whether monetization will be supported.

Where VyHub Could Fit in S&box

If S&box embraces dedicated multiplayer servers (like GMod), VyHub could:
Provide automated webshops for in-game purchases (cosmetics, perks, VIP access)
Help game creators monetize fairly through non-P2W perks and content
Manage communities and transactions for multiplayer server owners

But if Facepunch restricts monetization or focuses purely on standalone game development, VyHub’s role may be limited.

The Bottom Line

Right now, GMod remains the king of sandbox multiplayer, and VyHub is already a proven tool for game server monetization. If S&box embraces server-based multiplayer and allows monetization, VyHub could become a key tool for creators looking to build and sustain their communities.

For now, it’s a wait-and-see game—but one thing is clear: sandbox gaming isn’t going anywhere. 🚀
