Welcome to the world
of Wildlander.

Experience the next generation of roleplaying and immersive simulation.
Wildlander is the ultimate fantasy life sim, built for Skyrim Special Edition,
and created by Dylan Perry and the Wildlander Team.

A roleplaying experience unlike any other

Wildlander is a free, auto-installable modpack for Skyrim that builds on Skyrim's foundation
to deliver an unprecedented fantasy roleplaying game you won't find anywhere else.
‍
Wildlander's proprietary features work alongside 500+ community mods and the base game to create a truly living world—where you can be who you want, act as you want, and watch as your choices ripple out into exciting, unpredictable stories.

Explore a reactive world

The world of Wildlander is a complex web of simulation, where every choice reverberates out into a new story. Encounter intrepid adventurers wandering the roads. Trade in localized economies with real market forces. Make friends & enemies, and earn yourself a reputation. Interact with factions dynamically pursuing their goals.

Survive the frigid wastes

Wildlander's vision of Skyrim is both beautiful and brutal;
a realistic depiction of life in a harsh, frozen northland.
Death is common when venturing beyond the city walls, where only the strong and the clever survive. Combat is visceral and unforgiving, and one missed swing can mark the difference between life and death. The very land itself will test your limits and your preparation.

Be whoever you want

Earn a living as a humble carpenter in a cozy village. Strike out into the tundra and hunt for survival and profit. Hire mercenaries and travel the roads as a merchant. Plumb Skyrim's depths as a collector of treasures. Stalk the cities as a thieving vampire, preying from the dark.
Master the arcane as a studious wizard, cloistered away for weeks on end. The only limit is your imagination.

Unleash Skyrim's potential

Wildlander elevates the acclaimed Skyrim experience to even greater heights. Quests feature more depth, with new choices and alternate endings. Factions contain more content, more benefits, and stricter requirements to join and advance. Settlements are larger, with more people, services, and activities, and more ways to interact with characters. Every part of the world is denser and more rewarding to experience and explore.

"There is no game like Wildlander. Everything about it leads to deep connection with your character, huge dopamine hits, and hours upon hours flying by, as you forget about the real world. I truly believe Wildlander is the most immersive RPG I have ever played."

"Wildlander is amazing. It actually makes Skyrim into a living, breathing world. Everything feels meaningful, and I love the fact that you can just live in this world as another nobody, and rise to greatness through great effort. I'm impressed every time I think about it."

– TheJovster

"Wildlander is a total game changer: hardcore, rewarding, immersive, and most of all, stable.
And all in just a few clicks. My heartfelt thanks to the people of the Wildlander team."

– Kaepora Gaebora

"Wildlander feels more to me like Skyrim than Skyrim. Every addition feels like it should've been there from the beginning, and the balance is just incredible. Every second is breathtaking—there is just so much to do in so many different ways—and I feel like I'm constantly learning as I play it.
Dylan and the team have made a masterpiece. There is no other way to describe it."

"Skyrim has just never felt like this before. Wandering the wilderness feels so alive and threatening, while cities and settlements are bursting with life. It may sound weird, but I was on the edge of my seat trying to get from one town to the next. Also, the graphics are performing better than ever."

– drenaldo

"Wildlander is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. It is damn near the perfect RPG, and I feel such a sense of wonder and adventure trying to survive in this vast world teeming
with life. All this, without having to put frustrating hours into modding."

– Pivy1991

"This is a level I never knew Skyrim could reach. It's the best hardcore roleplaying game I've seen. And the install was so easy that my friends and I thought we did something wrong."

– SeaPickle18

"Wildlander feels so polished and complete, with no jagged edges. Truly a work of art."

– andrewkovach

"Wildlander forces you to take Skyrim not as a theme-park built to accommodate you,
but as a world that will murder you if you do not take it seriously. It really forces you to inhabit Bethesda's creation, and lets their work shine more than their own version."

– EveningRip

"Wildlander is the perfect amount of complexity and fresh air, without feeling cluttered or unbalanced, and the performance simply blew me away. It looks so good for how it performs,
and it did not even crash once! The cities feel alive, the survival mechanics add flavor,
and the game is challenging, but fair."

– Metleiche

"It often feels like I have to choose between either a niche game that offers any depth and vision, or a mainstream title with a thrilling artistic presentation. In Wildlander, you've made
the indie game of my dreams, with a big budget aesthetic."
