GG Brief Editorial Desk · AI-assisted, source attributed
Push Square reports that two weeks after The Witcher 3 Remastered released on PS5, the game launched with over 40 mods but many players say the additions are mostly basic. The Remastered edition brings mod support to console versions for the first time, and mod functionality is accessible from the game's main menu via a 'mods' option, Push Square writes. Most of the initial offerings are cosmetic changes or minor gameplay tweaks rather than large-scale creations, according to the same report. Push Square also notes players expected more substantial console ports of major PC mods, which have not appeared yet.
- What happened: Push Square reports The Witcher 3 Remastered on PS5 launched with over 40 mods, but those available two weeks after release are largely cosmetic or minor gameplay adjustments.
- Why it matters: Push Square says Remastered introduces mod support to console versions for the first time and exposes that functionality through a 'mods' option in the game's main menu, letting PS5 players download mods in-game.
- Context: Push Square reports some players anticipated more substantial PC-style mods to arrive on PS5, but so far the selection has been perceived as relatively basic; Push Square describes a related perception issue.
- What next: Push Square does not provide a timeline for when larger or more complex mods might appear on PS5, so it is not yet confirmed when the mod catalogue will expand beyond the current offerings.
