Sony, Bethesda resolve spat: Mods are back on for Fallout 4, Skyrim on PS4

Mods are back on the table for Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition on PS4.

Without explaining why Sony had reversed its decision to block mods on PS4, Bethesda today took to its blog to announce that mods will head to Skyrim first.

Skyrim will also ship with native 4K resolution support on the PS4 Pro from 28 October.

There is a bit of a caveat, however.

“Mod support will come to Skyrim first. We and Sony have worked hard to make this possible,” Bethesda’s post reads. “Mods on PlayStation 4 will allow you to modify and create your own content by using our Creation Kit… You will not be able to upload external assets with your PlayStation 4 mods, but you will be able to use any assets that come with the game, as most mods do. By creating a Bethesda.net account, you’ll be able to browse and try mods right from within the game.”

Fallout 4 is already available on PS4. A date for mod support on that title has yet to be confirmed.
