Winterhold: Skyrim in UNREAL ENGINE 5!

I made Winterhold in Unreal Engine 5 – at a more realistic and lore-accurate scale! Part of an ongoing project to visualise a more realistic and lore accurate scale to Tamriel’s cities – so here’s Winterhold – now with sixteen times the detail! Winterhold was once the capital of Skyrim – rivalling Solitude – until the ‘Great Collapse’ destroyed the majority of the city, washing it out into the sea, turning Winterhold into a shadow of its former glory. These days, it resembles more of a small village than a capital, what population remains, serving the needs of the College of Winterhold and its mages… But the imposing ruins of the old city still litter the landscape – an ever-present reminder to its few residents of the tragedy that occurred here... If you enjoy my content and want to help support the channel, you can buy me a coffee! From a playability standpoint, I’m not sure that you’d actually want something this big – it’s a lot of work for the artists and you run the risks of making a big, empty world with not much to do. But for lore visualisations like this – not really an issue! Rendered out in Unreal Engine on an RTX 3060ti. Using a mix of third party models and custom assets modelled in Blender. Nanite was used for all models and foliage; Lumen for global illumination and reflections. Please NOTE: This is a fanmade cinematic lore visualisation for Skyrim. It is NOT a mod!
