Sad trombone is sad. 

It looks like PS4 owners won’t be able to fight Thomas the Tank Engine dragons anytime soon. 

Bethesda has revealed that The Elder Scrolls V: SkyrimSpecial Edition and Fallout 4 will not receive mod support, despite originally intending to, as Sony has decided not to approve this feature. 

Here’s Bethesda’s official statement: 

“After 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.

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. We consider this an important initiative and we hope to find other ways user mods can be available for our PlayStation audience. 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 will provide an update if and when this situation changes.”

Yeah, this blows. Since the announcement of Skyrim Special Edition, PlayStation fans have been eagerly awaiting to revisit the classic game through wacky and crazy mods; but thats not happening anymore. 

Bethesda seems hopeful that some form of mod support may come, and maybe Sony will change their stance following the ensuing backlash, but as of now, Bethesda games on PS4 will not support mods. 

On the other hand, Microsoft and Xbox One, which have supported Fallout 4 mods for months now, are throwing shade left and right. 

Brutal. 

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Special Edition comes to PS4, Xbox One and PC on October 28.
