We might not have The Elder Scrolls 6 yet, but that's all right – a talented Elden Ring modder is working to get one of Bethesda Game Studios' classics to us instead, bringing Morrowind to FromSoftware's own fantasy RPG.
In case you've not heard of the big project yourself, legendary Halo and Elden Ring modder InfernoPlus has been working to port Morrowind to Elden Ring for quite some time now – heck, he first unveiled his plans in 2025, explaining that he was "about halfway done."
A good while has passed since then without much word from the creator, but a new update from InfernoPlus proves the mod is indeed still happening. Explaining the current state of the project in a YouTube video, he dubs it "the most complex mod ever created" – and, yeah, I can see why. Morrowind is 24 years old, and Elden Ring is, you know, a completely separate game.
"It's been some months since the last update, and we have made tremendous progress on the mod," InfernoPlus says. "Many things that I thought would be impossible have taken shape, and the game has entered a fairly playable state."
That's good news, to say the least – but that doesn't mean the mod is ready. "It's still got a ways to go before it's done, but what we have built here is actually really quite interesting," as InfernoPlus states.
He goes on to show it off, from the functional combat to spells and gear, and it's certainly a sight to behold. There's plenty to anticipate, but he does clarify that it's not been easy. Elden Ring doesn't provide too much to work with.
For example, crime and punishment are big in The Elder Scrolls. Guards will arrest you – a system that's not actually in Elden Ring itself. So, InfernoPlus and his team of modders have had to do everything from coding to scripting to bring the decades-old Bethesda RPG to life in the FromSoftware game, and they're still working on it.
He leaves a call for volunteers in the video, too, asking for artists and voice actors to hop on board the project.
That's not to say the mod isn't chugging along well, however – InfernoPlus reiterates that it's "progressing quite well," all things considered. So, we might just get to replay Morrowind in Elden Ring soon… sooner than The Elder Scrolls 6, I'd wager, anyway.
