Where Does Vermintide 2 Store Mods?

Vermintide 2 mods load through the Vermintide Mod Framework from a mods folder in binaries. Sanctioned status decides official realm use.

Last updated

Vermintide 2 modding runs on the Vermintide Mod Framework from a mods folder in the game binaries: one folder per mod, loaded at startup. Interface overhauls, bot improvements, and quality of life tweaks dominate. Sanctioned mods play in the official realm, the rest in the modded realm.

Framework version gates the stack after every patch, so update it before judging mods. Keep official realm runs sanctioned only and experiments in the modded realm. Back up the user settings tree separately, since keybinds and options live outside the mod folder.

Frequently asked questions

Every mod broke after a patch. What now?

Update the framework first, then each mod. Game patches break the framework wholesale, so simultaneous failure points there. The framework log names the failing piece.

Which mods work in the official realm?

Yes for sanctioned mods in the official realm, no for anything else. Unsanctioned mods belong in the modded realm with like minded ratslayers. Check sanction status on each mod page.
