Latest Steam announcements
- Massive Morrowind mod Tamriel Rebuilt's Poison Song expansion is out now, complete with new quests to join Great House Indoril and the Ordinators - 24 August 2026
Tamriel Rebuilt, the Morrowind modding project gradually adding the province's mainland to The Elder Scrolls 3's Vvardenfell-centric map, has gotten a fresh expansion over the weekend. Dubbed Poison Song, it's the long-teased update which lets you join House Indoril, the great Dunmer house the Neravarine's namesake Indoril Nevevar belonged to belonged. It'll also let you join the Temple Ordinators, Morrowind's golden-masked lawkeepers, and explore a new region full of "lush gardens and bountiful fields". Read more
- You can now play Morrowind entirely in your browser: 'Honestly just wanted to see if it could be done' - 28 July 2026
With Bethesda making us wait going on 15 long years for the next Elder Scrolls game (I'm not including Oblivion Remastered ), we've been left to our own devices. A phenomenon I've noticed spike as of late is calls for a Morrowind remaster, and a lot of chatter surrounding Bethesda's seminal 2002 RPG in general, like game devs weighing in on how it would fare if it came out today , and the history behind The Lusty Argonian Maid . We're all getting cabin fever... Read more.
- Accidentally thrusting Morrowind to death just got more difficult, thanks to engine reimplemention OpenMW's chunky new update - 22 June 2026
We've all done it. One moment, you're playing The Elder Scrolls 3 . Then, boom, you pass the thrust and everything implodes. Thankfully, the latest update to OpenMW - the open source engine reimplementation that's one of the the best ways to play Morrowind on modern hardware - includes measures to stop this thrusting from accidentally breaking the game. Read more
- One of the best ways to play Morrowind just got better with improved scripting support for magic mods and a host of crash fixes - 21 June 2026
Morrowind, the gloomiest and mushroomiest of all the Elder Scrolls games, is getting on in years—and it was never the most polished game in town, even upon its release a whopping 24 years ago. If you're sick of those rough edges, you need look no further than OpenMW, a fanmade open-source engine which makes the game play nice with modern hardware and operating systems. If that sounds like your thing, you'll be pleased to know it just got a huge update ... Read more.
- Morrowind modder returns to remake a 20-year-old epic—a beloved 'Discworld, not Monty Python' project that's 'unexpectedly lore-friendly' - 3 June 2026
It is one of life's greatest privileges to witness the completion of a masterpiece. Imagine Michelangelo putting the final taut lines on David. Imagine shooting the final scene for Mulholland Drive. Now stop imagining. You're here. You're seeing it. Muffinwind Rebaked is done... Read more.
- Morrowind mega-mod Skywind looks so good, even if it's still not finished - 8 May 2026
May is finally upon us, and that means three things: The weather is starting to suck less, Canada's oldest official holiday is approaching ( happy birthday, Queen Victoria ), and it's time to catch up on what's happening with Skywind , the mega-mod that seeks to recreate Morrowind, the greatest Elder Scrolls game ever, using the newer technology of Skyrim... Read more.
- Morrowind in Elden Ring mod is now "mostly playable", despite the fact its creator's "entire existence has been consumed with interpreting gibberish code" - 7 May 2026
Regular RPS readers might remember me writing a couple of times last year about a modder kicking off an attempt at porting Morrowind into Elden Ring . Their early progress looked promising, if living under the cloud of several complex things the group would have to figure out in some form to get it working. After about half a year of major updateless silence, modder InfernoPlus has emerged from the dungeons of Vvardenfell to reveal that the mod's now "mostly playable", following several months of battling a number of infuriatingly complex issues.

- Disgusting! Depraved monster adds effective quest markers to Morrowind, shows no remorse - 6 May 2026
What makes The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind one of the greatest games of all time? Is it the complex imperial politics of its setting? The piquant mythopoeia ? Fargoth?.. Read more.
- New Morrowind mod not only adds Sekiro parry, it quietly overhauls the RPG's most controversial mechanic - 27 April 2026
Look, the Elder Scrolls series has never had great combat, but 2002's Morrowind and the games before it are the worst offenders. A new mod for the OpenMW source port could be just the thing to make the open world clunker sing, though: It adds a Sekiro-style perfect block parry, as well as one of the most cleverly balanced overhauls of Morrowind's controversial percent-chance-to-hit system I've seen... Read more.
- Morrowind remake mod Skywind still looks like it could help my Skyrim-addled brain properly fall in love with the weirdest Elder Scrolls in latest showcase - 16 March 2026
While not as close to release as its sibling-of-sorts Skyblivion , we've been getting regular looks at what Morrowind remake mod Skywind for a looooong time now . The latest of these peeks at its team's efforts to reinvent The Elder Scrolls 3 in Skyrim 's engine came as part of a charity modding streamathon, and featured a nice stroll around Vivec. Read more
- This 8-bit Morrowind from someone with 'no experience with game making' will run on your actual Game Boy Color and is genuinely kind of great - 12 February 2026
I have one job here at PC Gamer and it's this: reminding you all that I really like Morrowind quite a lot. They tell me that's "not a personality," in response to which I begin levitating... Read more.
- Here's playable mahjong in Morrowind, boss, just like you ordered - 10 February 2026
I like to think I'm a relatively smart person; I can often remember most of my ABCs and it only takes me around five seconds to add seven to something. But one thing will remain forever beyond me: mahjong, the Chinese tile-based game that I mostly know as 'that one Yakuza minigame I simply don't interact with.' The fact is: it's impossible to learn. The other fact is: I've never seriously attempted to learn it. These facts are unrelated, to my mind... Read more.
- Larian publishing chief wades into the fray, says Morrowind updated with a modern combat system 'would sell like f**king hotcakes' - 2 February 2026
Bruce Nesmith has an enviable list of design and writing credits earned over a long history on some of Bethesda's greatest games: Daggerfall, Oblivion, Skyrim (on which he served as lead designer), Fallout 3 and 4, and others. None of which prevented him from being extremely wrong in his recent assessment that "the reality of playing Morrowind would not stand the test of time.".. Read more.
- Skyrim's design lead says if you play Morrowind today, you will 'cringe': 'The reality of playing Morrowind would not stand the test of time' - 31 January 2026
The PC Gamer review of Morrowind scored it an 83 back in 2002, which as the disclaimer at the top will inform you, is the lowest score a mainline Elder Scrolls game has got from the UK mag to date. That may stir feelings of confusion and unrest in you as it does "the Morrowind enjoyers of the current PC Gamer team," but Skyrim's own design lead Bruce Nesmith reckons fan demand for a remake has more to do with fuzzy nostalgia than it does the actual experience of playing Morrowind... Read more.
- Hero modder who started the Thomas the Tank Engine meme with Skyrim thumbs his nose at 'legal threats' and 'black vans with the Mattel logo' by modding Thomas into Morrowind: 'I have issues with authority' - 25 November 2025
For many years now, the children's character Thomas the Tank Engine has been something of a modding phenomenon. You can find Thomas in everything from Hogwarts Legacy to Elden Ring , but it all began with a 2013 Skyrim mod that replaced all dragons with the resplendent blue engine, as well as adding sound effects from the show... Read more.
- 23 years later, Morrowind on controller and Steam Deck just got a million times better: The latest version of OpenMW is out now - 7 November 2025
I've said it before and, unless PC Gamer fires me for all that embezzling I've been doing, I'm bound to say it again: OpenMW is one of the coolest mod projects out there. Much like DevilutionX does for Diablo or Daggerfall Unity does for Daggerfall, OpenMW is an open-source engine reimplementation for The Elder Scrolls 3 that lets you play it on damn near any device and with a lot of mod-cons... Read more.
- Morrowind mega-mod Tamriel Rebuilt is adding 'one of the holy grails' that players have wanted 'for more than 20 years' in its next mammoth expansion - 21 October 2025
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Tamriel Rebuilt is one of the most impressive mod projects of all time. Its quest is to build every part of The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind's titular province that Bethesda didn't get to, and it's been doing that for literal decades. Earlier this year it released its ninth expansion, Grasping Fortune, and now it's gearing up for number 10: Poison Song ... Read more.
- Morrowind gets way easier to play on your Steam Deck or sofa thanks to a new OpenMW release candidate that's all about gamepads, baby - 30 September 2025
Think fast, hotshot: after spending three years lovingly crafting July's 0.49 update , which dramatically buffed up its capacity to handle all-powerful lua modding, the crew at OpenMW have already turned around and put out their first candidate for its 0.50 release . In mod project timelines, this is basically a nanosecond turnaround... Read more.
- 'Because no one was paying attention we could just put anything into the game,' says the writer responsible for sneaking The Lusty Argonian Maid into Morrowind - 15 September 2025
Filmdeg Miniatures is a YouTube channel run by Tom Evans that is full of interviews with gaming luminaries. I know it mainly for unearthing Warhammer history on topics like the early editions of Warhammer Fantasy Battle . Evans also covers videogames, most recently in an eight-hour oral history of Morrowind in which he lets a host of the classic weird-fantasy RPG's creators meander up and down memory lane as they discuss how it was made... Read more.
- Morrowind is being ported into Elden Ring by a modder, complete with the vast army of goats and female clones Vvardenfell's always had - 1 September 2025
Remember when, back in the day, you made the trek through the ashlands to Red Mountain? Within, you encountered an unforgettable foe. "Come, Nerevar. Friend or traitor, come. Come and look upon the Heart, and Akulakhan. And bring Wraithguard... I have need of it", they said. "Heed my words. I am Malenia . Blade of Miquella. And I have never known defeat." Okay, so maybe not, but it's a nice image with which to open the news that a modder's managed to port the entirety of Morrowind 's landmass into Elden Ring . It's still very much a work-in-progress, as you might expect given its version of Vvardenfell's populated by copies of the same random woman and goats, but it certainly makes for a surreal watch.
