Lethal Company YouTube Boombox: How To Get And Use The Mod

Do you want to play YouTube music on your Boombox to dance with your friends in Lethal Company? Then, here is how to get the YouTube Boombox mod


Lethal Company is a new trending survival co-op horror game developed by Zeekeerss that came out in October 2023 and is currently in early access. In the game, you are hired by an anonymous corporate organization named the “Company” to explore different abandoned and industrialized moons to collect scraps for sale to meet a profit quota every 3 days. To aid these exploration journeys, players have access to many specialized items for defense, health and scrap collection that are available in the Store in the Terminal on the ship. 

One such item is the Boombox which can be bought through the store from the Terminal. It is one of the most fun items in the game because you can either dance with your friends or lure monsters away using it. However, there are only 5 songs by default in the Boombox which can get monotonous. For this reason, genius players have come up with a mod called “YouTube Boombox” to allow players to play anything from YouTube on the Boombox to get rid of the monotony and make the item even more fun to use. Hence, here is how to get and use the YouTube Boombox mod in Lethal Company.

YouTube Boombox Mod in Lethal Company

Much like most of the popular mods in Lethal Company, this mod is also available on the infamous site, Thunderstore. It is created by the user @steven4547466 of the website. As mentioned before, the YouTube Boombox mod allows players to play anything they want on the Boombox. It even allows players to sync the audio, but all of them need to have the mod installed. 

To use the mod, you need to first buy the Boombox from the Store in the Terminal for 60 Credits and it has a whopping battery life of 5 minutes and 47 seconds. Of course, as the item is an audio player, it will only play the audio from the YouTube video you choose to play. This can allow players to get goofy and silly inside the game while efficiently luring monsters like the Hygrodere and Eyeless Dog away to get back to the ship safely. 

How to get the YouTube Boombox Mod

Unfortunately, the YouTube Boombox 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 YouTube mod. However, it is truly worth it because who doesn’t want the Boombox to play songs you like? Hence, here is the full process you need to follow to install the YouTube Boombox 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)SteamsteamappscommonLethal 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, as long as they have the same version of 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 modpack file, the BiggerLobby mod file.

Installing YouTube Boombox Mod

Here is how to install the YouTube Boombox mod file:

  • Step 1: Go to the YouTube Boombox 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)SteamsteamappscommonLethal 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 YouTube Boombox mod into your game! Fairly easy to do despite having several steps, isn’t it? Now, you no longer have to listen to the same monotonous Boombox music when luring monsters or jamming out with crewmates in Lethal Company. Though, one thing to note is that, this mod is a new mod so it is quite normal for players to experience bugs. The developers are working on it and making updates to the mod every day, so appreciate the effort!
