Welcome, players! This page will walk you through all the steps to setting up BotW to play with mods. There are three different ways to do this:
- Playing on the Wii U console
- Using the Wii U emulator Cemu on your computer

All Wii U mods should work on both the console and Cemu, but most Switch mods have format differences and aren't cross-compatible with the Wii U version of the game.
