Greetings Mercenaries!

v1 of the MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries Mod Editor is now available for download through your Epic Launcher! To access the MW5 Mod Editor your Epic account must already own MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries. We strongly recommend installing the MW5 Mod Editor onto an SSD drive!

In this initial release of the Mod Editor you will be able to dig in and get started on planning and creating your MW5 Mods. Please note that support for packaging your Mods and integrating them into the game will be coming in a future update.

Use of the MW5 Mod Editor is subject to your agreement to the Mod Editor End User License Agreement.

To help get you started in your modding journey we've written up a basic guide for the v2 Mod Editor, which you can download here: Mod Editor Guide.

In addition to the above guide there's a wealth of information and a huge community of UE4 developers out there to explore. Here are just some of the great resources available to get you started:
