Will the new DLC update the game making mods incompatable?

[Tinipanda12]

Rimworld mods are a must for me but I worry that the game will force all mods to have to update making the game lose all the things I loved about it

Like all major updates for a game, it will almost certainly break every single mod.

The DLC won't. The 1.5 update to the base game may. Some mods have already been updated to 1.5 compatibility, but only some.

They have patch 1.5 (the update, but without the DLC) on the unstable branch of Steam already. Mainly so that mod makers can update their mods to work with it before its official release.

That said, some mods will unavoidably break (As example: perhaps the mod maker has moved on and it won't be updated).

Other mods might work even without a update.

I hope its easier than 1.4.... it took so long for some mods to convert and some I am still waiting for like android and stuff. I wish the owners would let people update their mods if they are not going to.

I really hope that they do keep on updating especially the android stuff. That was my favorite mod for the game tbh.

you can use this to stay on 1.4 well permanently or until enough mods has updated

To add to this, if you stick to a old version make sure you make offline backups of all the mods you are using, since if they get updated for 1.5 they might break for the game you are currently playing.
