Nexus Mods, the world’s largest modding platform and essential for fan-made mods that enhance games in various ways, has announced a new free trial system for its premium subscriptions, which has been absent since the service’s launch in 2007.

While it sounds appealing, the trial is somewhat limited, providing only three days of access to premium features after which users must either subscribe or cancel.

Key Details

• Trial Eligibility: Users can select a trial for either a monthly or yearly subscription plan.
• Payment Requirement: Valid payment information must be entered to initiate the trial.

Similar free trials on other platforms generally grant more extended access, leading some gamers to express skepticism about the short duration and the automatic subscription renewal.

Nexus asserts that the trial is merely an “experiment”, signaling potential changes based on user feedback.

In the meantime, benefits included in the premium subscription feature uncapped download speeds, ad-free browsing, automatic updates for mods, and collections that streamline mod installations.

As this trial rolls out, gamers are encouraged to evaluate it—or risk incurring unexpected charges if they fail to cancel in time.
