In their own words
Bethesda Creations
Bethesda Creations is a community for discovering, downloading, and playing content made for Fallout 4, Skyrim, and Starfield. Its catalog includes creations from professional developers and enthusiasts. Some content is free; other creations require Creation Credits purchased through a game’s in-game menu. Players browse and download through supported games, while Skyrim creations can also be added from the website. Purchased creations may appear on multiple platforms when the same Bethesda.net account is linked, but credits remain on the platform where bought and are not transferable. Credits work across the three games on that same Steam or Xbox platform. Creators accepted into the Verified Creator Program can sell creations and earn royalties. Bethesda requires applicants to provide a portfolio, linked accounts, multifactor authentication, and the latest Creation Kit. Availability varies by region, title, and platform.
