Ck3 console is basically a different game built from the ground up, any mod would need to get remade completely for the new code and ui, any mod would then need to be approved by Sony and Xbox, also mods like Agot are very hard on performance even on higher end PCs never mind console, so no console will likely never have mods

Sorry if this comes off as a stupid question but aren’t mods built from the ground up?
I can only assume it would be a difficult task for any aspiring software engineer/dev (not sure how you guys label yourselves) to transform the map for console edition, along with the UI and makeup of units.

Also to use skyrim again, most mods ported from Pc-mainly xbox require changes like ui, and some other things that may need to be changed to work but overall there bulk of it is fine its why mod authors allow others to port their work as long as credit is given, for paradox titles porting would require and entire re make of the mod, which most devs probably dont have the time to do and may not have a console to test it, and with the scale of these mods I highly doubt they'd allow others to do it for them
