Treyarch have good news for the modding community for Black Ops 4 on PC Treyarch\u2019s PC community manager has responded to a request about the future of mod tools in the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, and it is good news for the modding community. Due to Call of Duty\u2019s underwhelming popularity on PC in past years, mod tools have never really been fully supported by the developers, but that could all be about to change with Black Ops 4. With an entire studio in Beenox being brought on board to focus entirely on the PC version of the game, plus the new Blackout battle royale mode, there is renewed optimism for the PC community about the release. As for mod tools specifically however, Black Ops III did in fact embrace them somewhat, and there are plenty of examples of creative modders creating new maps and more with the tools that were available.

When asked by a Twitter user what \u201cmod tools are looking like\u201d for BO4, Treyarch\u2019s dedicated PC focused account replied assuredly, \u201cWe\u2019ve repeatedly commented on our huge fandom for the mod community, and it\u2019s something we\u2019ll be looking at, but won\u2019t be at launch.\u201d We’ve repeatedly commented on our huge fandom for the mod community, and it’s something we’ll be looking at, but won’t be at launch. \u2014 TreyarchPC (@TreyarchPC) September 30, 2018 So while the launch window is ruled out (which is admittedly a completely undetermined period of time), modders should be optimistic to getting support from the devs a month or two down the line, or perhaps in early 2019. This will be of particular interest with Blackout coming too, as the potential for modding and custom games (should they be a feature in Blackout) could be massive. The only downside is that of course the features wouldn\u2019t translate over to console, where the majority of Call of Duty\u2019s player base remains, but if interesting mods for the PC version are created, it could encourage some console players to make the switch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
