Skyrim just got a drop-dead gorgeous Unreal Engine 5 remake

We're in awe of its beauty

We never tire of Skyrim, even though it’s not as beautiful as it once was when compared with new RPGs.

Consequently, any opportunity we get to return to its shores, we’ll take, even if we can’t play those experiences.

This Unreal Engine 5 remake of the popular Bethesda title showcases what The Elder Scrolls V would look like if made today.

We've got to say, it looks gorgeous.

YouTuber Lee Torres is behind this stunning transformation of one of the less attractive settlements of the game.

Morthal in Skyrim has never looked so beautiful

In Torres’ own words, “Morthal is, to be frank, no-one’s favourite Skyrim city [...] To me, it always seemed so dreary and depressing, so I just dialled it up to eleven with the swamp Viking city vibes.

“[This is] part of an ongoing project to visualise a more realistic and lore accurate scale to Tamriel’s cities.”

Although there’s a darker atmosphere to the location, it’s far from the “dreary” visuals Torres described.

Sadly, we can’t explore Morthal for ourselves, as this isn’t a mod but a fan-made showcase instead. Nonetheless, it gives us hope for the future of The Elder Scrolls, specifically Elder Scrolls VI.

“I need these videos to be a game...” expressed another YouTuber user named @anon78747, “Just imagine getting this level of remaster for a game this big, it would be game of the decade.”

Further down in the comments section, another said, “The size of these cities really goes to show just how big Skyrim and Tamriel actually are,” before adding how Torres’ work is “absolutely phenomenal”.

People are so blown away by the scale of Morthal that they’ve started requesting other cities they’d like to see brought to life in such clarity.

One thing’s for sure, the more we see of Skyrim with enhanced, modern graphics, the more we long for the release of the next Elder Scrolls.
