As Cyberpunk 2077 got a fresh new life with the Phantom Liberty expansion a few months ago, the developers of The Witcher 3 plan to revitalize the game with a mod editor after 8+ years. Mods allow fans to expand the world of the game in meaningful ways while adding new features and receiving support from the developers. This is very welcome news for fans.

CD Projekt Red, the developers of Witcher 3, announced the news officially through their X account (formerly Twitter). The post mentions that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be getting an official mod editor. A mod editor, for the uninitiated, will allow players to create custom in-game experiences, such as adding new missions or new content to existing missions.

The Witcher universe has different storylines that the game barely touches on. This means that passionate fans can recreate some of these stories in the game as new missions. This mod editor for Witcher 3 will be free for everyone and will launch sometime in 2024. CDPR will share more information about this mod editor sometime early next year. We are excited to announce that we are working on a mod editor for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt! ⚔️It allows you to create your own in-game experiences by doing something completely new or editing existing quests and content. We plan to release it for free in 2024.… pic.twitter.com/e2kvXRqegZ — The Witcher (@witchergame) November 15, 2023
