- Click Create Account
- Verify your email! If you don't verify your email, then you won't be able to use mods until it's done.
Link your Bethesda and Xbox One accounts
When you sign in to your Bethesda account on your Xbox One, you are linking your account to your Xbox One so you can download mods from Bethesda's mod hub directly and they'll go straight to your console. Here's how to link the two:
- Start the Skyrim on your Xbox.
- Press any button to open the main menu.
- Select Mods halfway down the list.
- Enter the username and password you created for your Bethesda account.

- On the main mod hub screen, hit Y to access your Load Order.
- Select the mod you need to reorder.
- Press X.
- Move the mod up or down the list using the directional pad.
