Beginner's Guide to Skyrim Together

Developed by Together Team, Skyrim Together is a Co-Op mod that lets people play a game of Skyrim with more than one player. Basically, one player can start a local server, and share the ID and passcode with the other users. They can enter these details and join the local server. On the down-side, only a total of 8 people can be on the same server at once.

Skyrim Together is a mod, so it is a given that there are going to be a few bugs and lags along the way. You may even experience the game crashing once in a while. But don't worry too much. An important aspect to keep in mind while playing Skyrim together (multiplayer) is that the players need to finish the quest in the same order.

This way there are fewer chances for bugs and lags. Sadly, a few options won't work such as character-altering effects. You can even use the Nucleus Co-op Mod if playing on a split-screen is your thing.

How to Play Skyrim Together?

Given below are 2 ways to play Skyrim together with your friends. One way involves downloading a third-party app called Hamachi, and the other is by downloading the Skyrim Script Extender. Both ways require Harbor, another software, to be installed for a smooth gaming experience.

A quick note to remember is that when you're playing with friends, it would be best if all of you have the same item and armor mods. This way you all can see what is happening on the screen in real-time and no one will miss out on the action.
