Modding Tools Coming to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Later This Year, mod.io Confirms

mod.io, the platform behind official mod support for the S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Legends of the Zone Trilogy on consoles, has officially confirmed that modding tools are coming to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl later in 2025.

In its announcement, mod.io highlighted cross-platform functionality, strongly indicating that Xbox Series X|S players will be able to access and install user-created mods that were originally built on PC and uploaded to the platform’s servers.

While no specific release date has been announced by either GSC Game World or mod.io, there’s an important detail to consider: the current official support roadmap for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 does not mention mod support through June 2025. This makes it likely that the modding tools will launch sometime in the second half of the year.

For fans and creators alike, this is promising news—bringing the long-standing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. modding culture into the next generation, and potentially, to console players for the very first time.
