December 4, 2024, 06:59 AM

Independent developer Greg Coulthard has announced the completion of his project to port The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim to Unreal Engine 5. To celebrate this milestone, he released a trailer showcasing his work.
He emphasized that improving the graphics was not part of his objectives.
I'm happy to announce that my personal project to import Skyrim into Unreal Engine 5 is finally complete. All assets are Vanilla. My goal wasn't to upgrade graphics (other modders do this better), but to be able to read Skyrim's ESM data file thanks to a C++ plugin I developed to automatize landscape generation & object placement. Assets had to be imported manually however.
The creator mentioned that a demo of his project is available for download on Discord.
As a reminder, last month marked the 13th anniversary of Skyrim's release.
