Related: Skyrim Anniversary Edition: What 500+ Creation Club Elements Actually MeansĪccording to Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE) developer extrwi on Reddit, Skyrim Anniversary Edition will break many of Skyrim Special Edition’s mods - and they will remain broken for an unknown amount of time. Examples include The Forgotten City, a quest mod, and Enderal, a standalone game built within Skyrim. Other creations have taken a life of their own outside of the game.

Because of the quality of some of these mods, Bethesda has hired their mod authors for positions at the company. Vanilla Skyrim already offers hundreds of hours of content, but mods have propelled that figure into the thousands. Mods are a huge part of why Skyrim has remained relevant almost a decade later. Anniversary Edition will integrate these new additions on top of the graphical updates introduced with Skyrim Special Edition. Bethesda also announced that Skyrim Anniversary Edition will include a new fishing mechanic for the Dragonborn to use along bodies of water. Developer Bethesda is celebrating Skyrim’s 10th anniversary by releasing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition, an updated version of Skyrim Special Edition - the latter of which already includes many additional features with over 500 Creation Club mod elements. The Anniversary Edition of Skyrim will break mods despite serving as an updated rerelease following the recent Skyrim Special Edition.
