'Tropico 6' Adding Modding Support, Try The Beta

by Rainier on Aug. 2, 2023 @ 1:15 a.m. PDT

Prove yourself once again as a feared dictator or a peace-loving statesman on the island state of Tropico and shape the fate of your nation through four distinctive eras.

In times of political turmoil and social unrest, the people are calling out for a visionary leader, one who will steer the fate of their country with foresight and ingenuity

Face new challenges on the international stage and always keep the needs of your people in mind, in spite of any negative press covfefe.

Tropico 6 represents a bold new lease of life for the much-loved series, with the developer (Limbic Entertainment at the time) bringing exciting new ideas to El Presidente’s highly-polished table, as well as a stunning new engine developed in Unreal Engine 4.

For the first time in the series, manage extensive archipelagos, build bridges to connect your islands and establish new means of transportation and infrastructure. Send your agents on raids to steal the wonders of the world, including the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower. Customize your palace at will and give election speeches from your balcony, to win the favor of your subjects.

The Tropican Ministry for Public Participation and Election Gifts announced a large infrastructure project for Tropico 6 (PC): With the official modding support, in the beta you can bring your own ideas to Tropico and create or change anything from buildings to maps and even gameplay mechanics – or you can download mods created by other players.

As El Presidente puts it: “The modding project is part of our ’Bread and Circuses’ strategy to involve Tropicans more directly in the development of their home country. Because more democracy simulation for the masses means more votes for me!”

During the beta, you can download and use mods through mod.io with a beta version of Tropico 6 on Steam – follow the button below to learn how to install the beta.

In the next months mods will also be available in the release version of Tropico 6 on Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store. Stay tuned!

With the Tropico 6 Mod Kit, you can make loads of changes and additions to Tropico 6. Since it requires some advanced knowledge, we’ve prepared a YouTube playlist with 6 modding tutorial videos guiding you through editing different aspects of Tropico 6 – including maps, quests, and buildings. If you have more questions, feel free to head over to the Kalypso Media Discord server.

On Thursday at 1 pm EDT / 10 am PDTImi, one of the Tropico 6 Mod Kit developers at Realmforge will create a mod live. This will also be available to test in the beta right after the stream. Do not miss this opportunity and join us!
