Skyrim mods add so much to the already expansive, immersive world of the game, but, unfortunately, despite having kept the community thriving for years on PC, mods aren’t all that accessible on other platforms. While the Skyrim Creation Club still isn’t in the Switch version of the game fully, you can still pick up the collection of mods if you own the Anniversary Edition. Yes, it’s confusing, but we’ve got all the details below.
If you want to get cosy in this epic world, check out our Skyrim houses or Skyrim marriage guide. We’ve also a list of the best Skyrim maps, along with a Skyrim enchanting guide to help you get some magic mojo on your gear.

What is the Skyrim Creation Club?
The Skyrim Creation Club is an in-game store in some versions of the game with a microtransactional virtual currency called Creation Club Credits, which you can use to purchase unique add-ons for your game. As the official alternate to modding, each creation on offer is classed as official Bethesda content, developed with third-party developers and contracted mod authors.
While you can access the Skyrim Creation Club content on the Switch version of the Anniversary Edition, we have to be clear that you can’t access the Creation Club itself. We’re not sure why it works like that, but either way, if you still want that extra content, check out the next section for how to access it.
Is the Skyrim Creation Club on Switch?
Sadly, the Skyrim Creation Club itself is not available on Switch. However, if you own the Anniversary Edition, you can find a selection of items from the Skyrim Creation Club. All you need to do is follow the steps below.
- Pause the game
- Select the ‘system’ option in the menu
- Hit ‘installed content’
- See what Skyrim Creation Club content is on offer
