We will provide an update if and when this situation changes. However, until Sony will allow us to offer proper mod support for PS4, that content for Fallout 4 and Skyrim on PlayStation 4 will not be available.
We consider this an important initiative and we hope to find other ways user mods can be available for our PlayStation audience. Like you, we are disappointed by Sony’s decision given the considerable time and effort we have put into this project, and the amount of time our fans have waited for mod support to arrive. Now, Bethesda has released a statement on their website that states that mod support won’t be coming to PS4 … and they lay the blame squarely on Sony:Īfter months of discussion with Sony, we regret to say that while we have long been ready to offer mod support on PlayStation 4, Sony has informed us they will not approve user mods the way they should work: where users can do anything they want for either Fallout 4 or Skyrim Special Edition. The company has limited the space available to run mods on the PS4 version of Skyrim, along with outright refusing to allow modders to use external assets for the mods. That’s because Sony has had a few reservations about the modding community.
While the Xbox One version of Fallout 4 has been enjoying mod support for a few months now, the PS4 version has yet to receive the same support. Skyrim mods for the PS4 are hard to find. Bethesda announced plans earlier this year to allow user-created mods on the console version of Fallout 4 and the upcoming remaster of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
