Sure thing, let’s dive in. So, I was reading about this big news about The Witcher 3, which honestly, who can ever have enough of? Not me. So, CD Projekt RED says they’re bringing us cross-platform mod support later this year. Like, you can mod your game whether you’re on PC, PS5, or Xbox Series X/S. Pretty rad, right? Especially for console folks who’ve been on the sidelines in the modding game.
And here’s the kicker—this big mod-sharing fiesta is happening via mod.io. It’s like creating this big ol’ stew of modding happiness where both PC and console players get to tinker away. Finally, console players get their hands dirty, mod-wise. I mean, my inner geek’s kinda doing a happy dance thinking about it.
Now, the modding community’s been busy bees forever, even before CD Projekt RED threw us official tools just last year. Picture this: over 7,700 mods out there, and they’ve racked up 170 million downloads on Nexus Mods alone. Man, that’s a lot of Geralt in different getups and… wait, there was this dragon riding mod? Whoa. Makes you wonder what other wild creativity is brewing out there.
Quick switch here, but back to the cross-platform shindig. There’s no exact date yet, just a vague “later this year.” It’s like waiting for Christmas as a kid, but with more monsters and potions. Oh, and by the way, these mods won’t cost you a penny, but you’ll need an account on mod.io. Which, you know, fair trade, I guess.
Okay, jumping out of this rabbit hole of mods for a sec; have you heard about The Witcher 4? Ciri’s taking the lead, and honestly, I’m curious how they’ll top the last saga. No date on that debut either, but let’s keep the hype train rolling until then.
So yeah, that’s the big mod update. Kinda cool seeing all this cross-platform action. It keeps the game alive, fresh, and, well, just a joy to revisit. Mods forever, I say.
