Just Cause 3 Confirmed To Not Have Mod Support On PS4 And Xbox One

But there will be plenty of mod-inspired features in the game.

Back in June, there were hints that the console version of Just Cause 3 might follow in the ambitious footsteps of Fallout 4 and include some kind of mod support for PS4 and Xbox One gamers. Now, however, it has been confirmed that the console version of Just Cause 3 won't be getting mods after all. Speaking with WhatCulture, Just Cause 3 game director Roland Lesterlin said in response to a question about mod support for the console version of the game:
€œWe have nothing to announce on that front for JC3. Instead, we€™re focused on making our in-game upgrade system reflect the ethos of mods. Those should enable players to have a huge amount of creativity.€
At E3 2015, Lesterlin was asked by GameSpot about the news that Fallout 4 would feature mod support for the Xbox One, to which he replied, €œWe€™ve been wanting to do quite a lot of that stuff for a while [...] We€™re not announcing anything there yet, but we would want to support as much as possible.€ This raised hopes that Just Cause 3 was going to follow in Bethesda's footsteps, but for now it looks like Fallout 4 will be the only game to experiment with porting PC mods over to consoles. While the news may come as a disappointment to gamers, there are plenty of features in the Just Cause 3 upgrades system that take inspiration from Just Cause 2 mods, such as the ability to tether together several objects at once, or C4 explosives with propulsion jets to send cars flying in whichever direction you want. Just Cause 3 is coming out 1st December for the PC, Xbox One and PS4 - let us know what you're looking forward to doing in the comments!
