Brutal Company Mod In Lethal Company: How To Install It

Lethal Company is a hard game to survive in as it is, so why not make it more harder? Here’s how to install the Brutal Company mod to do exactly that


Lethal Company is a trending co-op survival indie horror game that was published on October 24, 2023, by the developer, Zeekeerss and it is currently in early access. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic and retrofuturistic dystopian world. An anonymous corporate organization named the “Company” hires players on a contract to explore abandoned and industrialized moons to collect scraps for sale and meet a profit quota every 3 days. During these exploration adventures on the moons, players have to face many dangerous creatures, which range from entirely harmless, almost comical creatures to instant one-hit killers. They also have to face adverse weather conditions on some moons during their explorations.

These creatures are already scary enough as it is and the weather conditions are very hard to get through, especially stormy and flooded conditions. However, the modders of the game took it upon themselves to add to the difficulty of the game by creating the Brutal Company mod. This mod makes monsters more aggressive, intense weather conditions and random moon events. Hence, here is how to install the insane Brutal Company mod in Lethal Company.

The Brutal Company is one of the most insane and beloved mods available for Lethal Company. It is a relentless mod that makes the game crazy difficult along with many added features. These added features include extreme weather conditions, insanely aggressive monsters and random moon events. Some of these random moon events like the “Turret Hell” are so difficult that you cannot step inside the facility without being killed almost instantly. As soon you enter through the Main Entrance, 5 Turrets will point at you and empty its full magazine into your lifeless body.

There are also good moon events in the game like the “Free Money!” event where there is a lot of scraps inside the facility that you can collect quickly. The extreme weather conditions make the normal conditions like Flooded and Eclipsed even more crazy with the water levels being too high to be normal and the creatures' spawn rate so huge that there will be 15 Eyeless Dogs just chilling outside the Ship’s Entrance with 5 Forest Keepers stomping around. This mod was created by the user @2018 on the Thunderstore site. 

How to install the Brutal Company Mod

Unfortunately, the Brutal Company mod is not a single mod so you have to go through a whole process with a few other steps to install the mod into the game. To install the mod, you need to install 3 different mods including the main mod. However, it is truly worth it because who doesn’t want the game to be so difficult that you die instantly, right? Hence, here is the full process you need to follow to install the Brutal Company mod in Lethal Company:

Installing BepinExPack 

Here is how to install the BepinExPack file which is a framework file that will help players to use the mod properly: 

  • Step 1: Go to the BepinExPack page and click on the “Manual Download” option.

  • Step 2: Complete the download and then extract all the contents of the .rar or .zip file into the Lethal Company folder in Steam on your C Drive. You can easily do so by using the following location: 
    • C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lethal Company 

Once you’re done installing the BepinExPack file, you need to install the second file, the LC_API file which will allow players to sync with their crewmates in the game, without them having the mod installed.

Installing LC_API

Here is how to install the LC_API file:

  • Step 1: Go to the BepinExPack folder that you just installed and create a new folder inside it. Make sure to name it “Plugins.”

  • Step 2: Go to the LC_API page and click on the “Download Now” option.

  • Step 3: Complete the download and then extract all the contents of the .rar or .zip file into the new “Plugins” folder that you created in the BepinExPack folder. 

Once you’re done installing the LC_API file, you need to install the original mod pack file, the Brutal Company mod file.

Installing Brutal Company Mod

Here is how to install the Brutal Company mod file:

  • Step 1: Go to the Brutal Company mod page and click on the “Manual Download” option.

  • Step 2: Complete the download and then extract all the contents of the .rar or .zip file into the Lethal Company folder in Steam on your C Drive. You can easily do so by using the following location: 
    • C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lethal Company

  • Step 3: When or if a dialog box pops up and your system prompt asks you to replace certain files in the folder, agree to all of them.

With that last step, you’re done installing the Brutal Company mod into your game! Fairly easy to do despite having several additional steps, isn’t it? Now, you no longer have any peace while playing because the difficulty is that insane. Though, one thing to note is that, this mod is a new mod so it is quite normal for players to experience bugs. Also, make sure to get the latest updated version of the mod, which is at version 2.1.1 at present, to ensure that it works properly. The developers are working on it and making updates to the mod every day, so appreciate the effort!

As for using the mod, there are no extra steps required to get it working except, of course, restarting the game’s client and making sure that your game is working with the mod in it. You can synchronize the mod easily with your friends without them having to install the mod as well because this mod only requires the host to have it installed. Hence, all of you can enjoy the encounters with your friends altogether as long as you’re the host and have the mod properly installed.

Conclusion

Needless to say, once you’re done reading through this article, you will have no problems with having the monsters in the game haunting your dreams and the jumpscares making you tremble for days afterward. Not only is it easy to install the Brutal Company mod into the game, but it also enhances the gameplay by letting players get even more terrified and face insane difficulty.
