How to use this database
- Check the stats strip. It shows how many mods we track, their combined downloads, the data source and the date of the last refresh.
- Scan the top 100 table or pick a category. Each row lists the rank, mod name and author, category, downloads, endorsements and a link to the mod’s official Nexus Mods page. The category chips open the full database filtered to that category.
- Open the full database for deeper searches. The button loads every tracked Kenshi mod with a search box and filters for category, source and sort order. The quick view shows each author’s own short summary.
About the data
We track up to the 400 most-downloaded mods per game on Nexus Mods. The data comes from the public Nexus Mods API (v2 GraphQL) and refreshes weekly. Each refresh updates the numbers on this page, so rankings shift as newer mods gain downloads.
We exclude adult content, cheats for online play, piracy tools such as cracks and DLC unlockers, and injectors.
Mod names and summaries belong to their authors. We list each mod and link to its official page. All downloads happen on Nexus Mods, where you can also endorse the creators whose work you use.
