Skyrim's Current Canon Is Extremely ConfusingĪ post on fan wiki staple Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages has a quote from Cartogriffi, a Bethesda community content manager and Discord/forum moderator. This sounds like a process designed to make sure new content aligns with the lore - which is certainly part of it - but Bethesda seems apprehensive about outright claiming that its Creation Club add-ons are canon. Joining the Creation Club requires an application process, and even once accepted, content pitches have to be approved by Bethesda before being developed and listed on the Creation Club marketplace. Some Creation Club content comes from Bethesda developers, while the rest is made by officially partnered Creators.

Content added to Skyrim through the Creation Club, however, occupies a gray area on the edge of what might be considered canon. Ever since, the fictional world has grown to include everything from its many pantheons of gods, to famous leaders of the Thieves Guild in just one of Tamriel's nine provinces. This is a bold step for The Elder Scrolls and its rich lore, one that once again throws into question what can and cannot be considered canon to the in-game universe.īethesda's vast fantasy universe was born in 1994 with the release of The Elder Scrolls: Arena. Now, Skyrim Anniversary Edition will add Creation Club content - 500+ Creation Club elements (according to official marketing), officially sanctioned and curated - to celebrate the perennially successful RPG's tenth birthday. Ten years after it initially launched, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is once again getting re-released in a grander package, but is everything being added in canon content? In 2016, the Special Edition included all three major expansions that had been released for Skyrim over the previous five years.
