Despite being released back in 2011, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is still popular to this day, and that is for one very good reason: mods. It is rare that you will find somebody playing the Bethesda hit via its vanilla base version because, quite simply, there are too many incredible mods that aim to make the game bigger and better than ever before. From bringing Skyrim into 2026 to which add unofficial DLC to the game, the community has thought of it all and better yet, they show no signs of slowing down.
