Lethal Company is a great game, but since it’s still in early access, the community has many ideas for things they’d like to add. Luckily, modders have taken matters into their own hands. The most popular mods show what the community wants and improve different parts of the game.

How to install and use mods in Lethal Company

Installing mods in Lethal Company might sound tricky, but it’s actually quite simple if you know what you’re doing. The first thing to do is install the Thunderstone mod marketplace, and from here download the BepInEx and LC API plugins. Install both of them and now you just need to select the mods you want from Thunderstone and install them directly to the game.

Essential mods for Lethal Company

BepInExPack

BepInExPack is an essential mod pack for Lethal Company. It’s very important for players who want to use mods in their game. Without this pack, none of the other mods mentioned will work.

LC API

LC API is another important tool for modding Lethal Company. It makes some key changes in the background and is necessary for running almost all mods on this list, much like BepInExPack.

BiggerLobby

BiggerLobby makes the game’s lobbies bigger. This means more people can play together at the same time. Normally, only four players can join, but with this mod, up to 20 players can play together, making it a lot more fun with more friends. These types of mods that allow you to bring more players into the game have become the most popular, and for good reason.

MoreCompany

MoreCompany also makes lobbies bigger. But instead of stopping at 20 players like BiggerLobby, it lets you have even more players, up to 32 in a lobby. This means you can play with even more friends at the same time, although it can be chaotic.

LateCompany

LateCompany is a mod that makes it possible for players to join lobbies even after they’ve already started. It’s a quality-of-life mod that makes playing with others more flexible and convenient. We all have that friend who likes to show up 30 minutes after the crew starts playing, so this one is for them.

Mimics

While we won’t spoil what form the Mimics take, this is a great mod that throws another inventive monster into the already potent Lethal Company mix. All we’ll say is that you ought to be very careful when interacting with your environments after you give this mod an install.

More Suits

More Suits is a mod that brings many new suits to the game. It also lets players change how these suits look, giving everyone a chance to make their gameplay more personal and stylish. When you’re using other mods to bring more players in your lobby you’re going to want to differentiate so this is the perfect mod to pair.

FlashlightToggle

FlashlightToggle is a mod that allows players to turn a flashlight on and off in their inventory, no matter what they are holding. This makes the game easier to play and the action smoother.

GameMaster

If you think the hostile environments of Lethal Company could use a more personal touch, GameMaster is the mod for you. This gives the host of your game the power to spawn in enemies as they see fit. It even provides the option to make small tweaks to the speed of enemies. Maybe your friends are too good at staying alive, and you want to make things exceptionally challenging. It’s up to you!

ItemQuickSwitch

ItemQuickSwitch is a mod that adds keybinds for getting to items quickly. This makes managing items and playing the game more efficient. When you’re out exploring you don’t want to worry about searching through your gear, install this mod so you can get ready to face whatever obstacles come in your path.

Brutal Company

Brutal Company is a hardcore mod designed for one purpose—to make Lethal Company even more challenging than it already is. It offers a harder and more intense gaming experience. We get that not everybody is playing Lethal Company for the challenge, but if you are then this is a must-have mod.

MikesTweaks

MikesTweaks is a mod that lets you change things like how much items weigh, keybinds, how much stamina or sprint a player has, and how many item slots there are. This allows you to customize how you play the game. You can use this as little or as much as you need, in fact, you can even use it in combination with Brutal Company to make the game difficulty almost unbeatable.

This is a very goofy mod, but it’s an enjoyable one as well. With the YippeeMod, Hoarding Bugs will no longer make unpleasant and insect-like chittering noises. Instead, they’ll let loose a happy, “Yippee!” When you walk past them. It’s less creepy than insect lip-smacking (mandible-smacking?), but it doesn’t change the sometimes hostile nature of the Hoarding Bugs. Even though they sound happy to see you, they’ll still fly after you with a malicious vengeance if you touch their loot.

Skinwalkers

Mods for Lethal Company tend to fall into two categories: useful or goofy. The Skinwalkers mod, however, can crank the already spooky atmosphere of the game all the way to 11. With this mod installed, the monsters you encounter can occasionally repeat recorded audio from your crewmates back to you. You might think it’s your friend repeating something they said a bit ago as they get closer to you, but you’re actually heading right into a trap.

ShipLoot

If you’re storing a lot of loot in your ship before selling for credits then you’ll want to know what it’s all worth right? Well, this handy mod ShipLoot will give you a consistently updated look at just how much the loot inside of your ship is worth. Who doesn’t want to be updated as they explore?
