Geralt Sets Sail in Witcher 3 Mod: Meet the Jankdaw Ship

Aug 23, 2024 1:48 PM

A new mod for The Witcher 3, titled "Sail Big Ship," allows players to take control of a full-size ship, bringing a fresh sailing experience to the game. Developed using the game's REDkit modding toolkit, this mod enables Geralt to pilot large frigates anchored in harbors, introducing a new way to explore the waters of the game's expansive world. While the mod offers an engaging twist, it comes with known quirks, such as Geralt floating awkwardly while steering and collision issues with the vessel, resulting in a unique but somewhat janky gameplay experience. Players can find these ships in Novigrad and Kaer Trolde harbors, but the mod is currently not available for PS5 users, despite the game being part of the PS Plus lineup this month.

What can players expect from the "Sail Big Ship" mod in The Witcher 3?

Players can expect a humorous and unconventional sailing experience as they pilot large ships, albeit with numerous quirks and jankiness typical of fan-made mods, which can create some entertaining moments during gameplay.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, released in 2015, is a critically acclaimed open-world RPG that follows the story of Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter in a richly detailed fantasy world. The game has received numerous expansions, and its vibrant modding community has continually added new content, enhancing replayability and providing fresh experiences for both new and returning players.
