00:00Hey everyone, Chandler Wood here, Community Manager at Avalanche Software, and I'm incredibly
00:12excited to finally announce that official modding is coming to Hogwarts Legacy in our
00:16next free update.
00:17That's right, we're opening the doors and we can't wait to see what you come up with.
00:22Wait, Chandler, what exactly is modding?
00:27Well, I'm glad you asked, Chandler.
00:29Modding is the ability for you, our amazing community of players, to create and play custom
00:33content in Hogwarts Legacy.
00:35But Chandler, isn't modding usually complicated?
00:38It doesn't have to be.
00:39We've made it easy for everyone.
00:40It's all simplified with official tools provided by us.
00:43For mod creators, you'll be able to get the official Hogwarts Legacy Creator Kit free
00:46on the Epic Games Store.
00:47The Creator Kit provides powerful tools right at your fingertips, allowing you to flex your
00:51inner developer, like the ones here at Avalanche.
00:57And conjure the magic with custom mods that other players can enjoy too.
01:01If you're already dreaming up new mods, connecting your Curseforged and WB Games accounts will
01:04let you easily upload your creations directly into Hogwarts Legacy for other players to
01:08enjoy.
01:09And for players to use these mods, our in-game Mod Manager makes finding, downloading, and
01:13installing mods as easy as casting Alohomora.
01:17So what's possible with modding?
01:18Whether it's adding small touches like hairstyles or character cosmetics, or diving deep with
01:24gameplay changes like new dungeons and quests, I'm excited for what I've seen so far.
01:29In fact, we've been working with some incredible mod creators ahead of launch to make sure
01:32you'll have some really cool things ready to play with right from day one.
01:36I've been dreaming of this day for a long time.
01:38All right, so let's talk brooms.
01:40Why settle for a standard sweeper when you can fly on something a little more creative?
01:44How about transforming your broom into a dragon spine, a phoenix, or even a vacuum cleaner
01:48as an homage to a few other witches?
01:50Whoa.
01:51Yeah.
01:52Yeah.
01:54And we'll have fresh ways to customize characters.
01:57Want long braids, Kelpie-inspired clothes, or maybe Hogwarts house outfits in new styles
02:01like Kraken or Periwinkle?
02:03Done.
02:04Now you've got it.
02:05Want new gameplay challenges to tackle?
02:07How about a brand new endless dungeon experience with constant combat and hidden paths?
02:11Check out the Dungeon of Doom mod.
02:12Feeling whimsical?
02:13There's a brand new magical creature fetch quest.
02:16Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
02:18But this is just the beginning.
02:19Now is where you come in.
02:24Our modding tools give you the ability to create these new quests, design custom dungeons,
02:28and make an assortment of cosmetic changes.
02:29I, for one, have always thought it would be cool to ride a dragon, or have a beard as
02:33a fifth year, or even modding our very own Andrew Quorum into a picture frame or two,
02:38or three, or four, or ten.
02:40Mods make my bad Photoshop a thing of the past, and indie dreams a reality.
02:44Yeehaw!
02:45Modding is the next stage of Hogwarts legacy, and we're excited to put it in the hands
02:49of our community.
02:50That's you.
02:51Aww.
02:52To see what you create, get ready to conjure the magic.
02:55Official modding support and the Hogwarts Legacy Creator Kit releases on January 30th.
02:59We can't wait to embark on this magical new journey with you.
03:02Bye!
03:03Yeehaw!
03:11Wait, Chandler, what exactly is modding?
03:14But Chandler!
03:15But Chandler?
03:16Dude, but Chandler?
03:17Chandler, what exactly is modding?
03:19Oi, Chandler, what exactly is modding?
03:22But Chandler, isn't modding usually complicated?
03:26Now I'm just losing, I'm losing.
