There was no Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel surprise on Skyrim’s 15th birthday, but Bethesda did bring something for players who are still in the game. On November 11, 2026 it released the Skyrim Anniversary Bundle: five Creations made by Verified Creators, available on Xbox, PC and PlayStation until December 12.
What’s in the Anniversary Bundle
- Legacy of Orsinium (Veelpot). A fully voiced faction storyline with multiple endings, in which you side with the Agra Crun against Orsinium’s forces. It expands the Mor Khazgun mines, adds side quests in the Orc strongholds of Narzulbur, Dushnikh Yal and Malacath’s Largashbur, and brings armor and artifacts inspired by The Elder Scrolls Online’s Orsinium.
- Kaitryn Fair-Shadows (anbeegod). A new companion: a young lorekeeper from the Reach who focuses on magic and healing. She comments on the main quest, the DLC, the guild questlines and the Daedric quests, has an approval system and can be married.
- Legendary Dungeons: Dwarven Delves (Trainwiz). Two dungeons from ESO, Stone Garden and Frostvault, rebuilt for Skyrim with new factions, enemies and loot. Stone Garden is reached through Pinemoon Cave, Frostvault through Uttering Hills Cave.
- Arquebus (Shoeburglar). A Dwemer hand cannon found in the ruin of Thuncharnthumz, north of Cradlecrush Rock. It uses the Archery skill, comes in Dragon, Saber and Dwarven versions with explosive ammo, and your Civil War choice unlocks a unique variant.
- Shadetree Lodge (TheRealElianora). A player home just outside Riften with crafting stations, storage, a private fishing spot and a hidden display room in the basement.
Price and availability
Bethesda’s announcement does not list a price. According to Push Square, the bundle costs 1,500 Creation Credits, half of the 3,000 credits the five Creations cost separately. It is a paid bundle, not a free update for Anniversary Edition owners. Bethesda says it leaves the Creation Menu on December 12, together with three other Verified Creator bundles running until the same date: Ancient Treasures, Echoes of Adventure and a Kinggath Creations bundle.

Back to Skyrim
Several of the new Creations tie into places you already know: Largashbur and the other Orc strongholds, the Reach, and the Rift around Riften – where the fishing in Fang of Haynekhtnamet already sends Anniversary Edition players. If you like Creation gear, see also Chrysamere and Sunder, plan a new character with the Skyrim Build Planner, and if you play ESO, its Echoes of Skyrim season is still running. Everything else is in our Skyrim guide.
