The unofficial Skyrim remake of Morrowind finally has a voice for every last character in Vvardenfell

Very long-in-the-works Elder Scrolls modding project Skywind has hit another milestone in its winding road towards an eventual release. The folks behind the mod, which aims to deliver a version of the series' beloved third entry Morrowind remade in Skyrim's engine, have recruited the final three voice actors they were looking for to fill out the base game's entire roster of characters.


Skywind's still without any kind of release date, meaning it's almost certainly further off than its Oblivion-centric sort of cousin Skyblivion, which is aiming to arrive this year. However, the regular updates we've been getting about it of late are encouraging signs that it will eventually let us into its heart chamber.

Open-source Morrowind project just got an update 3 years in the making that might have me saying bye to the vanilla game for good—oh, and you can load Skyrim in it now




Having begun work on it sometime after the domestication of rice, the heroic mad lads over at OpenMW—the open-source engine reimplementation for The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind that lets you play it with a minimum of fuss on pretty much any modern OS—have finally released its much-anticipated 0.49 update.

Hot off making the biggest city in any Elder Scrolls game, Tamriel Rebuilt is already eyeing one 'Twice the size'

As House Hlaalu capital, Narsis took years to put together and features over 600 interiors, which means it dwarfs every other playable city in every Elder Scrolls game...

Morrowind's new city from Tamriel Rebuilt is 'Bigger than any playable Elder Scrolls city in general,' and a single hero made its exterior




The modders at Tamriel Rebuilt have been building the rest of Morrowind for over two decades now, and the project just put out its ninth and largest expansion in the form of Grasping Fortune, which adds on an enormous chunk of the mainland province that stretches all the way down to its southern border. It's a behemoth, and its crowning jewel is the city of Narsis—capital of the wheelin' and dealin' House Hlaalu...

Top-down modded Morrowind lets you experience Vvardenfell like it's Baldur's Gate




Morrowind came out in 2002, the same year as isometric RPGs like Icewind Dale 2, Divine Divinity, Freedom Force, and Dungeon Siege. Its first-person/third-person perspective was a selling point at the time, though some would argue that playing a full 3D game with randomized to-hit chances made for an unsatisfying experience. Nowadays, thanks to the mod combo of OpenMorrowind and OpenNevermind, we can experience Morrowind as if it was a top-down CRPG complete with click-to-move and having to zoom in so you can pick up small objects...
