Beyond Skyrim: Bruma 2.0 Brings the Fan-Made Expansion to PlayStation
November 11, 2026
Beyond Skyrim: Bruma, the fan-made expansion that brings northern Cyrodiil from The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion into Skyrim, launched its Version 2.0 update on November 11, 2026, marking Skyrim’s 15th anniversary.
For the first time, Bruma is available on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 through Bethesda’s Creation menu; it was already available on PC and Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.
Version 2.0 expands the playable world with new and improved dungeons, interiors, puzzles, treasure maps, enemies, NPCs, scenes, and more than 30 books, alongside additional weapons, armor, clothing, spells, and unique items.
The update adds the fully voiced quest “All The Wrong Places,” which begins in Applewatch, and extends the playable area south toward the lake where the Imperial City is located.
It also restores quests, dialogue, and cutscenes removed from the original release, while giving followers new lines that respond more directly to the player’s adventure.
Other upgrades include revised character appearances and navigation, updated map icons and location names, new weapon animations and sound effects, custom weather, improved audio and level-of-detail rendering, and stability fixes.
The update adds full survival-mode support, improves integration with downloadable content, and includes compatibility features for Hearthfire home-building ingredients, community mods, and other modders’ projects.
Several dungeons have redesigned layouts and puzzle mechanics, while boss fights, loot, and enemies have been rebalanced; the update also includes hundreds of bug fixes.
The developers say Version 2.0 brings Bruma closer to the current Cyrodiil project, eliminating the need to maintain separate development builds and giving future releases a more manageable foundation.
The volunteer-made expansion is free, but players must start a new save because files from earlier versions are incompatible, and some related submods may need updates.
Bruma has been downloaded more than 16 million times; the original expansion features a county larger and denser than the Dragonborn DLC, more than 70 residents, 24,000 dialogue lines, and three hours of original music.
Beyond Skyrim is developing projects for other regions of Tamriel, including Argonia, Atmora, Elsweyr, Iliac Bay, Morrowind, Roscrea, and Valenwood; those provinces have not yet been released.
