A retailer listing has revealed that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on Switch will indeed have mod support. Best Buy Canada listed the following on their website.
Skyrim, remastered
-
This Special Edition of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has been remastered and enhanced for the current generation of home consoles
-
Visual and graphical enhancements include remastered game art, effects, volumetric god rays, dynamic depth of field, screen-space reflections, and more
-
The Special Edition also brings PC-like mod support to the game, so you can continually refresh your experience with new quests, environments, characters, dialogue, armour, and weapons
The description does not specify if this is PS4 level mod support, Xbox One level mod support or something else altogether. Still this is good news for the game on Switch and hopefully Nintendo owners will get this and have some fun mods of their own!
