Skyrim: Legacy Of The Dragonborn is the most remarkable fan expansion we've ever seen

Widely regarded as the best Skyrim expansion of all time

Just when you think you have seen all there is to see when it comes to Skyrim, one creator has single-handedly kept the RPG going with a DLC-sized expansion.

Legacy of the Dragonborn is a free-to-download mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim but this is not just any mod.

Go back to where it all began with the trailer for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim below!

“Legacy of the Dragonborn will forever change how you play Skyrim,” the official description reads.

“Not just a display mod, not just a quest mod, not just a new guild mod, but a complete foundational flagship mod to build an entire load order around.”

Created by icecreamassassin over on Nexus Mods and first released back in 2017, the mod is still being updated to this day with brand-new content arriving alongside each update.

“This DLC expansion-sized mod adds hundreds of new items, dozens of new quests and hundreds of extra hours of play.”

“Long have the jaws of Oblivion been bound closed, yet there are those who would seek to pry open the maw of destruction once more to meet their nefarious ends.

The long shattered heart of an empire has come to the lands of Skyrim’s strife, and waits for one who is bound to it to once again make it whole.”

Described as “arguably the best Skyrim mod ever made”, Legacy of the Dragonborn features nearly 4,600 unique items and sets, as well as a guild faction you can start from the ground up.

The guild, known as The Explorer’s Society, includes major quest arcs, and unique mechanics all centered around the Dragonborn Gallery in Solitude.

It is recommended that you start a brand-new save with this mod as Legacy will “change the way you look at Skyrim and change the way you play”.

Since its first upload, Legacy of the Dragonborn has received over 5 million unique downloads so no Skyrim career is complete without trying out this mod.
