Since mod support was added, players have downloaded over 50 million mods, bringing a whole new level of customization and experience to this already formidable RPG. Larian Studios has served up a smorgasbord of new content, and it seems that gamers are hungry for more.

This feature allows players to dive into the wealth of community-made content without the hassle of third-party installers.
