0:00Your next mod could be your job application. CD Projekt Red associate director Paweł Sasko says about half of the Cyberpunk 2 quest team were hired for their modding work on other CDPR games. Cyberpunk 2077 now has cross-platform mod support, so players on PC and console can browse and install user-created mods from an in-game menu. Here's my take. That's the right way to build a studio. Mods are proof of work. They show someone can ship, finish and listen to players, and a résumé can't do that.

0:33Putting mods in a menu on every platform means more people get to see that talent. So, recruit, what's your move? Open the menu, browse what's there, and note the creators you'd follow. If you've been sitting on a mod idea, finish it and share it. Game on, guild. Come hang out at WinGamingGear and show us what you've been building.
