Forget Roach, ride a deadly fiend in Witcher 3 mod

Jun 21, 2024 11:25 AM

A new mod for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has become a sensation among fans, replacing Geralt's trusted horse Roach with a fearsome fiend. Created by Nexus Mods user apokryphos, the Rideable Fiend Mount mod not only allows players to ride this monstrous creature but also introduces its deadly combat abilities. The fiend mirrors Roach's supportive behaviors and brings an extra layer of excitement to navigating The Continent. This innovative mod is one of many emerging since CD Projekt Red released the REDkit modding tools, enabling fans to craft unique experiences and modifications for the game.

How do I install the Rideable Fiend Mount mod in The Witcher 3?

To install the Rideable Fiend Mount mod, first download it from Nexus Mods. Then, extract the files into the "mods" folder found in the main directory of The Witcher 3. Ensure you have the latest version of the game and any necessary modding tools like the official REDkit installed. Activate the mod through a mod manager if required, and launch the game to enjoy riding the fiend.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, released in 2015 by CD Projekt Red, quickly became a landmark in RPG gaming for its rich storytelling, expansive open world, and intricate character development. The game has seen numerous updates and a resurgence in popularity due to its Netflix adaptation and continuous community engagement through mods. Players eagerly anticipate new entries in the series, such as Polaris, and the remakes and spin-offs that promise to expand the Witcher universe further.
