The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Solitude Looks Stunning Remade in Unreal Engine 5 with Lumen and Nanite
18.10.2023 - 10:11 / wccftech.com
Despite having been released over ten years ago, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim continues to be among the most popular games still played to this day. Still, a modern remake taking advantage of the latest technology would be rather welcome, as highlighted by a new video shared online this week.
This new video, shared on YouTube by Leo Torres, is another installment of an ongoing project to visualize Tamriel's cities more realistically and with lore-accurate scale showing a recreation of Skyrim's capital, Solitude, with sixteen times the detail. The city was rendered using Unreal Engine 5.3.1 using a mix of third-party models, and custom assets modelled in Blender and textured in Mixer. Nanite was used for models and foliage while Lumen was used for global illumination and reflections, and the results, needless to say, are stunning, despite such a huge city not being exactly practical gameplay-wise.
While this The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim recreation is only one of the many independent projects using Unreal Engine 5, more and more games powered by the engine are getting released as time passes. The latest is the soulslike Lords of the Fallen, a game that looks quite good but that doesn't play just as well, as I highlighted in my review.
Lords of the Fallen boasts impressive visuals and an interesting story for a soulslike, but unfortunately, that's where the praise ends. Despite functional gameplay and a well-designed world, the experience is marred by frustrating combat mechanics, subpar enemy placement, and an overall lack of polish, making it one of the most frustrating soulslikes ever released.

Unionisation still necessary despite improvements, say CDPR devs, after the 'tremendous amount of stress and insecurity' caused by recent layoffs
Earlier this month, Polish game devs, including several from CD Projekt Red, formed the Polish Gamedev Workers Union (PGWU). This came in the wake of further layoffs at the company in July, to the tune of 9% of its workforce. At the time, CEO Adam Kiciński explained the move as something to help make the teams more «agile and effective», but agile and effective doesn't pay the rent.
