Desperate for a Modern Morrowind After This Year’s Oblivion Remasters? Check Out Skywind’s New Gameplay Showcase!

Sure, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered and Skyblivion already hit the shelves or will by 2025. But folks ALWAYS want more retro-style Elder Scrolls vibes, right? The mod wizards whipping up Skywind—what’s that? It’s Morrowind reborn in Skyrim’s engine—just dropped fresh gameplay. It’s rad.

Did you forget? Totally fine if you did. Let’s jog that memory. Some dedicated souls are reimagining Morrowind. Picture this: trekking to a mountain, all so a charming dude rocking a loincloth and mask can chat you up, ’cause you’re a ghostly pal. Yep.

Anyway—oops, hold that thought—Skywind just put out a 20-minute sneak peek at the Imperial Legion quest. You gotta rescue Joncis Dalomax, a knight stuck in the Daedric Shrine of Ashurnibibi. Sound wild? It is!

So, you start off with Imsin the Dreamer at the Buckmoth Legion Fort. They’ve revamped that armor—looks pretty sweet. Our Dunmer adventurer sets off to the shrine. Oh, and there’s this classic bandit shake-down—old trick: fork over the cash, then boom, take ’em down to snag it back. Quite the move, huh?

Now talking details—oh boy. Sure, the exterior’s got this Skyrim fortress vibe, but inside Ashurnibibi? It’s pure Morrowind magic. Funky patterns everywhere, those doors looking all… strange, and murals fit for a Daedric skirmish. Seriously cool stuff.

So, they wrap up this gameplay drop with a progress update from the team. No solid release date yet—bummer, huh? But things are cooking along nicely.

Their video narrator spills the beans: “Been hustling this past year. All the 2D art and writing—done. Creature models? Major strides there. Plus, overhauling the weather, water, lighting. Oh, and most of the 3000 NPCs? Cast and voiced. Crazy, right?”

But get this: they still need someone big for voice acting. Dagoth Ur’s role is open. Plus, Vivec and Yagrum Bagarn need voices too.

Also, the team’s hunting for more help—like 3D clothing wizards, voice acting mixers, and asset implementers. If that’s you, hit up their site. Sound like fun?
