Skyrim players who are suddenly getting back into the game for the 15th anniversary have a huge plethora of mods to check out.
The best Skyrim mods from The Forgotten City to Lordbound offer massive experiences that eclipse that of the vanilla base game.
And those who’ve been keeping a close eye on the Beyond Skyrim: Bruma mod may have noticed that a brand new update to the player-made expansion just launched in time for the game’s 15th anniversary.
Originally released nearly a decade ago in 2017, Beyond Skyrim: Bruma aims to recreate the northern part of Cyrodiil as it appeared in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, as a newly playable area for Skyrim players to explore.
Beyond Skyrim: Bruma’s latest update expands the playable space to include more of Cyrodiil
The new update brings the mod up to Version 2.0, hosting a whole load of new features and additions.
For starters, a brand new quest has been added, All The Wrong Places, which is fully-voiced and can be started in Applewatch.
This comes with the mod also expanding the worldspace. Most notably, you can now venture further south towards the lake where the Imperial City lies. Several new dungeons and interiors are also available for you to explore, with lots of restored dialogue to further flesh out the expansion.
Overhauls to boss fights and puzzle mechanics are also present, and the new update also adds new clothing, armour, spells, and weapons based on some items that were featured in Oblivion but didn’t make it into the sequel. This extends to new variants of enemies as well.
More minor changes the mod makes include adding Cyrodilic variants of alchemy stations, enchanting tables, and strongboxes, as well as plenty of bugfixes. A larger breakdown of every single change has been recorded on the project’s page on Nexus Mods.
Beyond Skyrim: Bruma is part of a greater network of mods which aims to recreate various locations in Tamriel in the 15-year-old RPG.
In addition to Bruma, the collective is also working on bringing the rest of Cyrodiil to the game, as well as Black Marsh, Atmora, Elsweyr, Iliac Bay, Morrowind, Roscrea, and Valenwood.
Although the project has been ongoing for a decade now, the other provinces have not been released to the public. However, progress is still being made on the other projects.
For now though, you can grab Beyond Skyrim: Bruma from the mod’s official download page on Nexus Mods.
This should hold you over while we all wait for more information from Bethesda on the next Elder Scrolls game, which was confirmed to be titled Sentinelearlier this month. We also know it’ll be set in Hammerfell around five years after the events of Skyrim. However, don’t expect any more information on the upcoming game for quite some time.
