Windrose: Mods – The best ones you can currently use

Windrose is a comprehensive, new survival adventure. Many players wonder whether mods can also be used. Here you will find everything you need to know about it.

Can you install mods in Windrose? At the current time of the early access launch, Windrose does not yet offer official mod support, such as convenient integration through the Steam Workshop. However, the developers have already confirmed that official mod support is planned for the future.

Until these features are officially integrated into the game, modding in an unofficial way by manually adding files is already technically possible. The community is actively practicing this, so you can already find some initial mods on well-known third-party sites like NexusMods.

Keep in mind: Mods always come with a certain risk of destroying the game. Installing mods always carries a risk of ruining your save file, the entire game, or even something on your PC.

In these cases, you generally cannot expect support from the developers, as they do not officially support these mods. However, using third-party mods is not prohibited. If you want to try out the modifications at your own risk, you can do so. Just be careful, as it could also be malware that you are downloading.

The most sensible mods that you can currently find on NexusMods are shown here.
