A mod for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has added not just a fully customizable main character but also the option to play as a sorceress, which comes with its own quest line, combat system, and more.
NexusMods user nikich340 created the Custom Player Characters mod, which lets players step away from role-playing Geralt of Rivia and instead create their own unique protagonist. Every character model in the game can be pulled from, with players able to mix and match body parts to create their ideal monster slayer.
The most impressive part of the mod comes in the sorceress additions, however. Not only can players, again, pull from every model in the game to create a custom character, but the mod adds its own combat system separate to how the main game plays.
Instead of swinging swords at baddies, players instead wield spells such as blasting lightning, summoning tornadoes, and even turning into a cat. Abilities outside of combat allow portals to be made or lights to be cast in dark areas. A custom quest line walks players through these spells and teaches them new ones too.
This mod comes after the release of REDkit: an official modding tool for The Witcher 3 released by CD Projekt in May 2024. The developer announced REDkit in November 2023, saying "it will allow you to create your own experiences in the game by making something completely new or editing existing quests and content."
REDkit has so far been used to create some wild and wacky mods for The Witcher 3, including one that lets Geralt ride an enormous fiend instead of Roach and another that recreates the original game in The Witcher 3's engine ahead of an official remake. The most exciting addition so far perhaps comes through the discovery of a scrapped ending sequence, which was revived using the toolkit.
Mods will be the only new content coming to The Witcher 3 going forward, of course, as while the game received a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S update in December 2022, it otherwise won't get any more official content as CD Projekt focuses on its wealth of other incoming projects.
The highly anticipated next mainline Witcher game, codenamed Polaris, is currently in development but won't arrive until 2025 at the absolute earliest, and probably later. There are two other Witcher games on the horizon too, including the aforementioned remake of the original The Witcher and a multiplayer spin-off.
