The Bethesda website also plays home to a mod section for Fallout 4 and just opened a section for Skyrim. This is essentially the same experience from the Bethesda website but with the added convenience of not having to visit the website to download and install the mod. When launched, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition players on the PlayStation 4 can visit the Mods menu in-game to browse and search for mods, choose favorites, post feedback, and install them from within the game. There is no word on if the new agreement between Bethesda and Sony will increase the mod file size. The PlayStation 4 would only support mods up to just 900 MB, whereas Xbox One owners can add mods up 2 GB in size. What was known at the time, though, was Sony's console had file size limits. This was delayed with no specific reason given. The addition of the console nearly broke the official Bethesda website with 50 times the traffic of the PC mod launch, demonstrating just how much console players have been yearning for the ability to play games with mod support.Īs previously covered, Fallout 4 mod support for the PS4 was supposed to launch in beta form at the end of June.

Official mod support was added by Bethesda Softworks for the PC in April of this year, and this was followed by the Xbox One at the end of May. Bethesda does say the game will receive "enhanced lighting and graphics features," however.

Unfortunately, there is no mention of native 4K support for Fallout 4 on the PS4 Pro. This is apparently necessary as Skyrim is releasing soon and the developer studio wants to get support working there first before updating the already-released game. The last-generation game will be rendered in native 4K, meaning it will be more than simply a resolution bump.įollowing the release of Skyrim Special Edition, Bethesda will begin work on adding mod and 4K support to Fallout 4. The Elders Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition will be the first to receive both mods and 4K support when it launches on October 28. Additionally, those that make the jump to the PS4 Pro will get to see both titles running at 4K, though not immediately for Fallout. The publisher of both role-playing games announced Thursday that mod support is coming to the PlayStation 4. Whatever hang up between Bethesda Softworks and Sony existed to prevent mods for Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition appears to have been resolved.
