- A new job listing for a developer tester suggests that Marvel’s Blade will get official mod support, possibly via the Creation Kit.
- The studio wants experience in the Creation Kit and the modding community in the preferred skills, implying official mod support.
- The scope or arrival time of the mod support is unclear, but if the Creation Kit is used, we may see official integration at the Bethesda level.
Since the first reveal of Marvel’s Blade during the Game Awards 2023 event, fans have been quite excited for it. However, only a little has been revealed about the game since then, but Arkane Studios has now unknowingly confirmed a major detail.
A new job listing published by ZeniMax Media for a developer tester indicates that the major Xbox first-party game is now expected to feature official mod support. This could have huge implications for the highly anticipated project’s future.
Why it matters: Arkane Studios’ bringing official mod support to the purely single-player experience, Marvel’s Blade, might significantly increase its lifespan, mainly if the Creation Kit is used. Fans are already excited about it.
The job listing even briefly mentions wanting experience with Bethesda’s famous Creation Kit, which suggests that Marvel’s Blade may use the tool for official mod support. This could make modding a massive part of the otherwise purely single-player experience.
Experience with Creation Kit and the modding community.
However, nothing beyond these tidbits has been confirmed yet, which makes the third-person action-adventure entry all the more mysterious.
Fans hope to finally see official gameplay later this year, likely in the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase event on June 8, 2025.
For those not in the know, Marvel’s Blade is expected to come out in 2027 and has been said to be in development for a few years already. It is set to launch for Xbox Series X|S and PC, while a PS5 launch remains unconfirmed.
