The official site for The Elder Scrolls series, including The Elder Scrolls: Blades, coming fall 2018. Thing is, SKSE was created for the 32 bit Skyrim, and Skyrim Special Edition is 64 bit, meaning the current version of SKSE won't work with the Special Edition. There is now an alpha being tested. Oct 28, 2016 The definitive special edition of Skyrim has been out all of a day and already has racked up nearly 300 Xbox One mods at Bethesda's website now that the developer is allowing console mods on newer games. That number is sure to skyrocket further, considering the untold thousands of mods in existence for the original PC edition.

This page lists all patches released for the Special Edition. Upgrading Skyrim to the latest patch is usually recommended, as many bugs and glitches are often fixed by the patches. You can find out about your version in the lower left corner of the 'System' screen (Esc on PC, Start then selecting 'System' on console). Extra details on specific platforms can be found on the related pages: PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
Please note that having a designated patch installed will not guarantee that the issue it was supposed to fix will be fixed upon entering game. In some cases after a patch has been installed, players have noted that their previous save files have become unplayable, glitchy, and/or have other issues. As such, it may be necessary to start a new game file to have all issues resolved.

The definitive special edition of Skyrim has been out all of a day and already has racked up nearly 300 Xbox One mods at Bethesda's website now that the developer is allowing console mods on newer games.
That number is sure to skyrocket further, considering the untold thousands of mods in existence for the original PC edition. For those who finally got in on the mod action with Fallout 4 on the Xbox One, you may have noticed a lack of certain type of hyper-popular mod... yep, that's right, there's no console nudie mods for Fallout at all.
It's not clear if that was Bethesda's call or Microsoft's, but either way its not going to be changing for the remastered Skyrim on current gen systems either. Occasionally a nude mod does sneak by under the radar using a different name, but it always get culled eventually as moderators notice and ban them.
Sadly, that does greatly reduces the Not Safe For Work (NSFW) opportunities for Skyrim console mods, but don't fret: it doesn't eliminate them entirely! There's plenty of mods that make things just a bit more racy without going fully nude or sexual, and there's loads of options for making this latest Elder Scrolls entry more mature and violent than was originally intended.
Enhanced Blood Textures
An absolute must for a gritter, gorier version of the Elder Scrolls universe, this mod doesn't just make the blood look better, it ensures there will be plenty more of it on the screen.
New decapitation and death spasm animations are added, in addition to varying levels of blood spurting out depending on how much damage any given attack actually deals. Basically, this is essential day 1 downloading - when and if it finally becomes available for Xbox One / PS4.
Seraphim Female Body Replacer
This one actually already made it over to the console mod realm due to some dedicated (or maybe overeager?) fans who like their female characters to be of the more voluptuous variety.
While the original PC mod had bared breasts, this one obviously doesn't, but everything else appears to have come over to the console version. Seraphim Female Body Replacer is essentially a suite of mods all meshed together, combining some of the best character model changes into one package for more attractive female NPCs across the game.
Caliente's Beautiful Bodies Edition
Perhaps even better than Seraphim's Female Body Replacer, this mod definitely won't make it in its full form as there's a good deal of nudity involved, but it also tweaks all the character bodies in non-nude forms, making them appear better than they did in the vanilla version of the game.
Essentially this modder made custom textures based off photographs of real women to make the bodies appear more realistic, and while the Skyrim Special Edition does get a graphical upgrade, it could always use even more of an eye candy boost.
Better Males
The male equivalent of the Seraphim and Caliente mods, this one has a very strong nude focus, but it does also drastically change the appearance of faces, chests, and hair for all males NPCs. The hanging jumbly bits will obviously have to go, but everything else should be kosher for a console mod one day in the not-too-distant future.
FNIS Sexy Moves
Rather than replacing textures or body shapes, this mod changes how characters move and react when you walk near them. Instead of the typical stiff and mechanical animations, FNIS makes all the female NPCs move more lithely and frequently flaunt their various assets – which you should have improved with the previous mods already, of course!
Relationship Dialog Overhaul
This one's not exactly NSFW, but it's a highly recommended mod that does add in a ton of new insults for rivals to hurl at you, if you like to take a little abuse while playing Skyrim.
It also rather increases the quality of the dialog and offers a more mature approach across the game – and this one has actually landed on consoles already!
Non-Essential Children
Being Female Skyrim Special Edition
Of course the most divisive mod would make this list, with some loving it and others finding it to be too disturbing to contemplate. For a more immersive and dark world, modders quickly got rid of the old Bethesda standby of weirdly making children invincible and unkillable.
With this PC mod that has yet to make it to consoles (and probably won't if Bethesda has anything to say about it...) children can not only be damaged and killed, but also pick pocketed just like any other adult NPC you come across.
Sadly, there's never going to be those Schlongs Of Skyrim or Lover's Lab style mods for consoles (sorry folks, we know how much you like that) until developers and console manufacturers get less uptight about nudity and sexuality in gaming.
That being said, there's plenty of room for NSFW content to arrive if modders are smart about what they include and skirt the line of actual exposed breasts and genitalia.
