The compromise is that user's won't be able to upload external assets with their PS4 mods, though they'll be able to use any assets that come with the game. Using Bethesda's Creation Kit, users will be able to modify and create their own content. Now one month later, Sony and Bethesda have come to an agreement in regards to mods. 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.' '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. '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,' Bethesda stated a month ago.
But then Sony set up a roadblock by refusing to approve mods as Bethesda wanted to implement them. That was the plan all along, of course, with Bethesda originally intending to bring modding to the PS4 back in June. At long last, Bethesda is bringing mod support for Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition to PlayStation 4 players after working out an arrangement with Sony.
