Win a free game with GOG.com

We all love games, that's one of the things everyone in this community has in common, so when our friends over at GOG.com asked us if we'd like to give away some game keys to you guys as part of their "We Love Games" celebration, we could hardly say no!

Win MUG-nificent prizes in our Nexus Mods Trivia Quiz!

I think I speak for pretty much everyone when I say we've got high hopes this year will be much better for everyone around the globe than 2020 was. With that said, it might come as a bit of a surprise to some of you, but did you know that we're actually going to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of Nexus Mods come August 2021? That's right, Nexus Mods (and its predecessors going by other names) has now been around for almost two decades! Just to give you an idea of what that means: back then whe...

New CDN service for Premium users

TL;DR

We have recently enabled a new download location for Premium Members that can potentially increase download speeds for any users who might have slower speeds than expected with their Premium Membership. If you're a Premium Member and you think you should be getting faster speeds then please try the "CDN" download location, which now defaults to this new provider.


The long version

If you’ve had the (mis)fortune of taking the time to read my year i...

Buttering Up Calradia - Aragas

In this feature, we're chatting with Aragas (aka Aragasas), one of our top Bannerlord mod authors. While you might not have heard of him, if you've played Mount & Blade II with mods there's a good chance you've used at least one of the mods he and the other members of the Bannerlord Unofficial Tools & Resources (BUTR) team have worked on.


Thank you for taking the time to talk with us Aragas. To start off, can you tell us a bit about yourself? 

I'm a Senior...

The year in review

Happy new year everyone.

It has been a couple of years since I last updated you all on the more internal goings on at Nexus Mods so I've decided to drum up enough enthusiasm to write another of my long-winded, banal "blog posts" on the matter. I wasn't able to get around to doing one last year and I am aware that some of you actually like to punish yourselves, but if you're like me and just like to skim read, here's the TL;DR:

Statistically we're doing better than ever. E...

Fallout: The Frontier Releases Today!

Big news Fallout fans, it's finally happening! Fallout: The Frontier will be available to download on Nexus Mods from 8pm (GMT) and on Steam next week.   

Development of Fallout: The Frontier started almost 7 years ago and there were certainly times along the way where it looked like it would never make it to release, but the dedicated modders behind the project stayed strong and are now releasing this DLC-sized mod for New Vegas into the wild for the entire world to enjoy.  <...

We The Players Winners - November/December

It's been a busy couple of months! Our eagle-eyed users may have noticed the lack of a November announcement in the We The Players event, so we're declaring the winners from both November and December today, which brings the year-long event to a close.

Site Maintenance - User login sessions

It's almost Christmas! We hope you've all managed to keep off the naughty list during 2020. 


There's a good chance if you're reading this you might be wondering why you were logged out of the website recently. Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with your account. This happened because we had to clear everyone's active login session as part of a routine - but essential - database maintenance task. 


If you haven't been logged out yet please make sure your acc...

wiggolp: The majority of players who finished the game probably gue...

Ban on US political mods

Recently we have seen a spate of provocative and troll mods being uploaded based around current sociopolitical issues in the United States. As we get closer to the US election in November we expect this trend to increase as it did this time 4 years ago.

Considering the low quality of the mods being uploaded, the polarising views they express and the fact that a small but vocal contingent of our users are seemingly not intelligent or grown up enough to be able to debate the issues wit...

Our web developers are working on restoring old notifications, however, we are not yet sure if this is going to be possible. We understand this isn't ideal for many users who rely on the site notifications and would like to humbly...
