The modding community’s creativity gives PC gamers an edge that console users might covet, though accessibility is expanding. Several console titles now accommodate player-made content, with another major release preparing to follow suit.
CD PROJEKT RED commemorated The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’s 10th anniversary on May 19 by teasing upcoming collaborations, events, and a planned modernization effort. The studio revealed that through their partnership with mod.io, console editions of the RPG would gain access to fan-created modifications in an impending update.
This disclosure confirms that mod support via mod.io will become operational for console versions of The Witcher 3 in coming months. The timing aligns well with last year’s release of official REDkit development tools, suggesting enhanced creative opportunities.
Curiously, the studio’s documentation referenced an “announcement” using past-tense wording despite no official reveal occurring. Potential explanations range from project cancellation (with residual text remaining) to delayed communication surfacing prematurely. Both scenarios remain plausible given the context.
While uncertainties linger, enthusiasts remain hopeful for formal confirmation of this console modding initiative in the near future.
