Insurgency: Sandstorm server owners have a wide range of mods to choose from, including extra weapons and complete overhauls. Modding is an excellent way for servers to increase available content and provide a more unique experience for players.
Many mods can be found on mod.io and can be automatically installed onto your Shockbyte Insurgency: Sandstorm servers by subscribing to your desired mods after logging into your Mod.io account and connecting it to your server.
