This page tells you about Cyberpunk 2077 world editor mod.

As entSpawner is currently (Feb 2025) under active development, information on this page may be outdated. In this case, you're welcome to become an editor and update it!

Wait, that's not what I want!

Witcher3 has an official tool, why doesn't Cyberpunk?

Because the ways of the CDPR are inscrutable. Keep in mind that the modding tools dropped 10 years after the initial release of Witcher 3.

Although we don't have access to privileged information, it is the general consensus in the modding community that we will see official modding tools for Cyberpunk2077 by 2030. It is a running joke that we will not need them by then.

What is entSpawner?

EntSpawner (developed by NexusGuy999 aka KeanuWheeze) is the continuation of the discontinued mod ObjectSpawner.

Where can I get it?

As of February 2025, it is still in open beta and thus not published on Nexus. You can download the latest release on github.
