Moddico Libertad - El Presidente releases Modding!
El Presidente and Penultimo (mostly El Presidente) have also decided to bestow emergency powers of creating and playing in-game mods to the masses. After discussing with the Mod.io ambassadors, El Prez simply couldn’t keep these exciting possibilities from his loyal fans. The mods will be hosted on the Mod.io website and will be downloadable via an in-game menu across the Steam, Microsoft Store, Epic Games Store and GOG versions.
The kit to create these mods has been rolled out for PC for free on the Epic Games Store or can be acquired from El Presidente directly (for a small handling fee of 1,000 Tropican Dollars). A series of videos prepared by Tropico’s Department of Education, hosted on the Kalypso_live Youtube channel, will teach those new to modding how to create mods for Tropico 6.
For more information on the Mod Kit, tips and tricks from the developers, and directions to download, please visit the Kalypso Media Discord Server.
