Install mods
Updated for Brotato 1.2.0.1 · checked 2026-11-05

On Steam the install line I can cite is short. GamingPickz puts it as: subscribe on the Workshop and the game picks the mod up on the next launch. There is no zip to unpack in that description. ContentLoader and Mod Options are the usual prerequisites, visible at the front of the Workshop.
Before a big update, and 1.2 said this outright, unsubscribe from mods that have not been updated. Then launch. If the game will not start, the troubleshooting page is the next stop, not a second install step.
Epic, Xbox PC, Switch, PlayStation, and phones do not list a Workshop on the store pages I read. I will not invent an install path for them. 'How to mod Brotato on Xbox PC' gets that answer: I do not see a supported path.
