The free REDkit mod creation editor for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is now available to all owners of the game on PC.
CDPR have put a lot of work in behind the scenes to make the REDKit launch a possibility and we have worked closely with them to provide support in any way we can. We're excited to see what mod authors will be able to do with the REDKit as it opens up a whole new world of modding for the game.
Are you a Witcher 3 player?
It will soon be possible to make a wide array of new mods in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, from alternate clothes and hairstyles to brand-new characters, environments, quests, and more. We're excited about what mod authors will be able to do with the REDKit and can't wait to see what they upload over the coming weeks and months.
Don’t know how to start? Check out the REDkit website or take a look at our Guide on using Vortex with The Witcher 3.
Mod authors can tag their mods as “Made with REDkit” to help you find them all in one place.

A huge thanks to everybody here for everything......
Keep up the greatness
But today the game is awesome, they did a really great job
Uh-huh.
Explains why it took almost a decade for the mod tool to reach fruition after CDPR first mentioned it.
That said, The Witcher game series features some good gaming. I'll likely jump back into the series once my playthrough of BG 3 is done. Need something less think, more do. LOL Just wish the Witcher games had better mechanics. Real sore spot, those.
Their recent deserved praise for Phantom Liberty or boxing the base game into proper shape years after release doesn't change that.
Nevertheless, it's a move in the right direction. However, with the impending release of modkits for Starfield and BG3, I don't foresee engaging with The Witcher 3 in the near future.
what's very much corrupt though is consciously lying to your customers about the game running well on previous-gen consoles, and then pretending to offer refunds knowing well that Sony won't agree to it - ultimately resulting in the game getting yeeted from the PS store.
At times I feel like people need to sit back and think about how they react when a company tries to mend their ways. If we permenantly write off a company when they do something wrong, what's the point in that company ever changing? Yes Cyberpunk had a rough launch, but CDPR sat down, worked for 3 years, and turned the game into something that will long be considered one of the best video games of all time.
If those responsible for lying to investors, misleading gamers, mistreating developers, and strongarming reviewers had been replaced, I'd be more trusting. Or maybe if those responsible had truly and publicly owned what they did and changed how they went about developing games rather than attempt to justify their actions and stick to their non-methodology and bad management. As none is the case, I suspect anything and everything CDPR does is nothing more than lip-service.
As far as throwing out the entire staff (as the above post demands), I don't agree. They paid their fines for the lies, replaced those in charge of development with experienced developers, reworked their development pipeline (moving from waterfall to agile), and have some truely amazing sales and reviews to prove that all worked. CDPR really had a redemption arc over the past 3 years, and I highly recommend anyone who doubts it to go read some reviews, or better yet, play the game to decide for yourself.
Witcher 3 (which this thread is about by the way) is ONE OF THE BEST RPGs EVER imo.
Phenomenal open world, main quest, bunch of side quests - 2 GREAT DLCs and now mod support.
Thank You CD Project Red for giving us years of entertainment !
if so when can we expect them to be released
