Escape the Backrooms is an extremely fun game, but you can make it even more adventurous by installing a few really good modifications. This guide will provide you with a list of the 10 best mods for this game, including the following choices:
- 16p Max Lobby Mod
- Arsenal Mod
- Playable Entities Mod
- PY Mod Menu
- PY Insanity Mod
- Custom Skins Pack Mod
- Free Camera Mod
- 3rd Person Mod
- Kitty’s House Mod

16p Max Lobby Mod
The 16p Max Lobby mod eliminates player collision and adds the capability for 16 players in the co-op mode. Both the Interpose and UE4SS are also supported by this mod; it just needs to be installed on the host. Note that this mod will still function properly even if the text “Co-op has a maximum of 4 players” appears on the screen.
Arsenal Mod
The Arsenal mod allows you to set up three traps to help you protect yourself from entities while navigating the backrooms: one handgun for shooting entities, one hammer for destroying doors, traps, and locations, and one supply container.
Playable Entities Mod
The Playable Entities mod actually allows you to control the entities in the game. However, note that this mod doesn’t support Hounds or Watchers. Also, you won’t be able to control an entity that has not yet spawned. As for controls, use the following hotkeys: LMB (speed boost), 4 (control entity 1), 5 (control entity 2), and 6 (control entity 3).
PY Mod Menu
The goal of the PY Mod Menu is to offer a small, highly configurable menu that allows you to adjust map travels, interactables, static meshes, and various pickups. Many people worked on all of the fun things and functionalities that have been added to this mod, so try it out.
PY Insanity Mod
The PY Insanity mod offers twists like “push TV in level fun in order to unlock the finale” or even rework an entire level run. It not only attempts to make the game more difficult by increasing the default sanity consumption, adding entities in levels without one, and adding more entities in levels that already have some, but also includes unique new mechanics, intriguing twists on existing features, and entire level redesigns.
Custom Skins Pack Mod
The Custom Skins Pack mod adds over 20 new skins. The trick to loading the skins is to put the skin you wish to wear into the mods folder. If you want to change the skin, then simply replace the files with the skin you want in the same folder.
Free Camera Mod
The Free Camera mod provides the option to fly with both a free camera and noclip. Simply press F4 for free camera, or F5 for noclip. If you wish to move down, then press C, not Shift as usual. Note that his mod functions only as a host and never as a client.
3rd Person Mod
Toggling the 3rd Person mod will slow you down on huge levels, even on high-end machines. But the normal player view is no longer affected by the lag in the updated version. Toggle third-person mode between front, shoulder, and back with the help of the F5 key.
Kitty’s House Mod
The Kitty’s House mod adds the Kitty’s pink Level 974 with a complete kitchen, living room, and bedroom. Note that this new level requires you to also install both the Interpose Mod Loader and the Interpose Map Loader.
Randomizer Mod
If you’re tired of the same layout for items and levels, then be sure to download the Randomizer mod. It effectively makes every run different, as if you were playing a new game each time you load a save.
