For over a dozen years, community-made content has expanded The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim with hours upon hours of fresh experiences, from players sharing graphical tweaks or simple weapon packs to even bringing their own original quests and storylines to life.
In continuing to evolve with the Skyrim community, we are excited to announce Bethesda Game Studios Creations, an updated way for players to discover, download and play community-made content. Creations combines Skyrim’s existing Mods, Creation Club items and all-new Creations under a single Creations menu available for players to browse today in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition.
Creators can put up their own Creations for players to enjoy, or even apply to the Bethesda Game Studios Verified Creator Program to set prices for their Creations. That’s right: become a Verified Creator and you could earn a royalty for each of your Creations sold within Skyrim Special Edition.
Creations is rolling out today for Skyrim Special Edition and Skyrim Anniversary Edition for PC via Microsoft Store, Steam and Epic Games Store, as well as Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox One X|S, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
TRY THESE NEW CREATIONS TODAY
What better way to dive into Creations than letting the content speak for itself? We're excited to announce several new Creations coming to Skyrim Special Edition, showcasing the capability and creativity offered by our esteemed Verified Creators*:
East Empire Expansion
Establish and grow trading posts across Skyrim, unlocking new mercantile systems for the East Empire Company! Fill dungeon chests with loot for Company agents to deliver to the nearest outpost - or even to the market on your behalf. This Creation adds quests, fully voiced NPCs and more from Kinggath Creations, known for contributing on
Sim Settlements.
Legendary Dungeons – Dwarven Delves
This hefty first dungeon pack from Creator Trainwiz adds two unique & perilous dungeons, offering players tons to delve into. Folks may already be familiar with Trainwiz’s work from classic meme mods involving a certain famous Tank Engine – not to mention the
Forgotten Seasons Creation Club item also available in Skyrim Special Edition.
Katja the Thief
Primarily known in the community for making Fallout 4 collaborations, this Creation from Unoctium introduces players to Katja, a voiced Nord follower to join you on your escapades.
Aldmeri Anti-Mage
From Creator Niero comes this lavish Thalmor robe, offering a simple yet stunning outfit for players’ wardrobes. Just because you spend a lot of time adventuring doesn’t mean you can’t look good doing it.
Winterfrost
Creator -TheDogOfWar offers players a beautiful domicile to keep warm from the chilly outdoors. You’ll have to complete a short quest before moving in, but it’ll all be worth it to call the place home.
Arquebus (Skyrim with Guns)
This Creation packs both a dungeon to explore and a unique weapon to boot. Forged by Creator Shoeburglar, players delve into an expansive ruin, facing its Dwemer-made centurions and wielding a mighty arquebus (complete with four variations!)
Shadetree Lodge
Known for making homes in Skyrim, Creator Elianora is a fixture in the modding community and was even a contract developer for Starfield! This Creation offers a cozy player home on the water to hang your hat (or helmet) after a long day’s adventuring.
