Xbox One To Support Mods? 'It's Up To Developers' Says Major Nelson

4.6
In a first for Xbox, it looks likely that Xbox One will support mods.

Following news that any Xbox One can be used as a dev kit, it was asked on Reddit if this means the console would support mods.

"It's up to developers to support that," answered Microsoft's Major Nelson. "These are two very different things."

His answer suggests that the capacity for modding is there, if developers create games in a way that will support it.

Xbox and Xbox 360 didn't allow for mods but the recent Xbox One policy changes are positioning the new console to be the most open console Microsoft has made to date.

We're still doubtful we'll see mods on Xbox One titles but this is the closest Microsoft has come to allowing them to happen on its console.

Impossibility they should be able to support mods


It's really up to the developers, if that want their game to support mods then the Xbox One will be able to do that.


It would be nice if they did. It would make games so much funner and not have to worry about bans lol.

Cokes Microsoft and mods don't go together. Surprised...

Wokze I hope it does, minecraft is pretty boring without mods, I think servers with commands could be cool to, but it would be hard to bring to Xbox.


Servers with commands would be awesome, it would make it look alot more professional.

They don't, but I'm sure they won't worry about mods on games like minecraft.
