This news comes to us via a tweet from the official Witcher account:
We're thrilled to announce that we're working on a mod editor for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt! ⚔️
It will allow you to create your own experiences in the game by making something completely new or editing existing quests and content. We’re planning on releasing it for free in 2024.… pic.twitter.com/e2kvXRqegZ

According to the tweet, the mod editor will give players the ability to create entirely new content as well as edit content that already exists within the game. This means that items, characters, and even entire questlines can be adjusted to your heart’s content.
The mod editor is slated to arrive some time in 2024. CD Projekt Red didn’t have any more details to share, but expressed plans to reveal more information next year prior to release. We’re excited to see what the tools look like when they drop. It’s always awesome to see developers support the modding communities around their games. Sometimes, community content can be just as good as the original product.
