It’s a good job thatSkyrimremains so popular because despite being revealed at E3 2018, we still have no idea whenThe Elder Scrolls VIwill be released, well, at least officially. It might be safe to assume that the next entry in theElder Scrollsseries could be a next-gen title.

Until that time arrives, largely thanks to the awesomemoddingcommunity,Skyrimcontinues to be supported with a wealth of free content whether it’s bug fixes, visual and gameplay overhauls or brand-new story content.

“Olenveld is a new lands mod, the size of a small DLC, bringing the lore location of Olenveld toSkyrim. It introduces a unique questline and an island recapturing system,” reads its description.

The mod weighs in at a modest 817MB, so it’s not too much of a taxing download.
