Paradox Interactive Working With Microsoft to Bring Paradox Mods to Xbox

Paradox Interactive is happy to announce a partnership with Microsoft to release Paradox Mods on Xbox One. Now, for the first time, PC mod creators have a direct line to showcase and publish their work for Xbox One gamers to enjoy.

Anders Törlind, Product Owner for Paradox Mods shared his message to fans and modders:

“Modding has been, and remains an important part of the Paradox community”… “As we have diversified the way we distribute our games, we want to make sure all our players can take part in the creation process. For Surviving Mars, we have worked with mod creators to support Paradox Mods with some of the best mods available, all in one place and downloadable in-game or simply using a web browser. We really look forward to unlocking the world of modding for all members of our community, regardless of what system they are using to play our games.”

Here is why this is a pretty big deal for both Gamers and Modders:

For Players:
Launching with over 30 mods tested and ready for console players for Surviving Mars, Paradox Mods includes projects from recognized creators within the modding community such as Silva and ChoGGi. Players now have even more ways to enjoy the survival strategy sim whether it’s adding a self-sufficient Forest Greenhouse or building a Martian Car Wash. Simply log into your Paradox Account from the Surviving Mars title screen, open the “Mod Manager” at the bottom of the screen to browse the mods catalogue, then select mods that you want to play and the game will automatically download and add them to your playing experience.

For Modders:
Paradox Mods is the first direct pipeline modders have to publish their work on consoles. Featuring in-game and web interfaces that enable easy distribution, Paradox Mods allows mod creators to submit their creation once and have it made available on every platform — no extra steps required.
