Modding has long been a mainstay in the gaming industry, allowing some of the most creative talent in the gaming community to retell, remake, or even completely rewrite some of the most iconic stories we've ever experienced. For decades, these unseen heroes have been fixing gamers with their favorite games, going so far as to reshape the rules of gaming reality itself.
In 2026, a new modding platform focuses on these creators who have literally changed the game. The launch is planned for January 7 GGModsborn out of a desire to celebrate the talents of the modding community, it will offer contract salaries and reward the success of the clever code crackers and creatives who bring some of our favorite alternative video games to life.
Best Skyrim Mods, Rated
Skyrim has been around for years and fans are getting more and more creative with its mods. They are the best.
GGMods pays modders to do what they do best
It's no secret that the quality of modding these days often rivals the original creators being emulated, some of which are big-budget AAA studios. Because of this, the time seems right to give creators adequate support and resources to continue creating for the gaming community. The time for modders to create incredible gaming experiences for free is over.
What sets GGMods apart from some of the other top modding platforms on the internet is its ambitious move to be a creator-first space. The platform will select top talent who will receive official support in the form of paid contracts, resources and support to create adaptations of popular video games and their experiences.
GGMods monetization model will be transparent
GGMods will not only offer funding for creators on the platform, but also a way to predict how much their earning potential is at any given time with a fixed rate income system. As part of the platform's revenue model, creators who drive traffic to the site benefit the most. With an easy-to-understand engagement point system, modders can calculate how much their efforts have earned them.
It's not just about funding. GGMods will also offer a stream of support for creators through completion grants, partnerships and ongoing promotions. This will help promising projects reach players in the best possible condition in much less time, and partnerships will offer upfront compensation to turn ideas into tangible results.
Other benefits
Beyond funding and resources, GGMods will primarily aim to be a creator and community-driven platform for creators and gamers alike to celebrate their love of gaming together. In a competitive modding platform market, GGMods will differentiate itself from the competition through features such as:
-
Transparent economy with clear and predictable payouts
-
IP protection through specialized anti-theft systems and “Official GGMods Original” badges.
-
Modern UX with controlled upload flows and game-specific templates
-
An active presence in the community with regularly available staff on Discord
-
Mainstream visibility through GameRant and Polygon coverage for select creators
-
For modders migrating from other platforms, GGMods offers founder badges, increased visibility, and private Discord channels with direct access to the development team.
GG Mods will not just be a store, it will be a community built on a welcoming and inclusive culture of creation. Participants can look forward to demonstration events, creative events and community gatherings. Not to mention regular, thought-provoking out-of-the-box mod jams (like “Make It Cursed” or “Worst Graphics Win”), weekly creator highlights, and events that encourage collaboration.
One of the biggest sources of support for creators will be the GGMods Discord, where there will be an active team of staff helping modders with any questions or concerns that arise.
To celebrate the launch of GGMods, the team is hosting a giveaway for both creators and players to participate in just by joining the Discord server. The prize pool includes the following hardware and items:
-
