Years into development, there’s still no sign of when Skywind will see the light of day. However, the team behind the fan remake of Morrowind has shared what was technically a Halloween teaser.
Showing the spookier side of this unofficial project, we get another glimpse of Skywind in its current state (thanks, DSO Gaming). Here we have a small taste of some of the more unsettling creatures that will await us, as and when it comes out.
As for a release date, we still don’t have one. We’ve been treated to gameplay footage in the past, but there’s no sign of the “total conversion mod” being made available just yet. For now, enjoy the spooks in the teaser. Admittedly two days after Halloween, but that’s my bad for not spotting it sooner.
A quick reminder of what the project is
Skywind is a complete reimagining of The Elder Scrolls 3 which is being built in Bethesda’s Creation Engine. In this sense, it’s actually more of a Skyrim mod than a Morrowind remake, but the end result is pretty much the same thing.
The team has been working on it for quite some time. In fact, it’s difficult to even pinpoint when the project officially began, but the FAQ says it’s about as old as TES5.
It’s probably best to also point out that while this sounds very much like Skyblivion – the unofficial remake of Oblivion done in Skyrim – the two are being helmed by different teams. If you’re interested in helping out the Skyrind crew, they’re always on the lookout for volunteers.
