Alec (RPS in Peace)reportedback in 2019 that the original Skyrim Together mod had been raking in $25,000 each month on Patreon. However, the project had also been using code from the Skyrim Script Extender without permission, which the developers acknowledged after an interview withEurogamer. Together Team have stated that the Together Reborn mod will be “fully open-source”.

It’s recommended that one player acts as a party leader to host the entire playthrough for Together Reborn. Swapping party leaders might break any quests you’re doing,Together Team say. Only the party leader can talk to NPCs to progress quests, and loot quest items. Other players are free to kill monsters and bosses, do quest-related puzzles and clear dungeons. Save often to avoid future disappointment.

If you want to rope some friends into donning horned helmets and tackling Skyrim as a team then just remember that the co-op mod will only be available for the Special Edition of the game on Steam. Together Team have said they have no intention of supporting any other edition. You can read their full FAQ and a guide to getting startedhere.
