The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an action-adventure role-playing game set in a Viking-inspired world, with its design and environment steeped in Norse mythology. The player dons the role of Dovakin or Dragonborn and is tasked with saving the world from a world-ending Dragon.
Despite having been released a decade ago, Skyrim is still running strong due to its die-hard fan base and active modding community. The game has excellent mod support and a lot of room for creativity, so modders are able to change the gameplay and visuals in significant ways.
This includes overhauling Skyrim into an entirely different game to letting players run around as Pickle Rick. There are also mods, like Bat of Skyrim, that turn the player’s character into a superhero.
The Bat of Skyrim also adds a unique quest and a massive, gorgeous Batcave. The lore-friendly quest will ease players into the shoes of the Batman and immerse them in the mythos of the caped crusader.
Upon close inspection, it can be seen that the Bat armor and Batcave have been designed to fit into the universe of Skyrim rather than just being cosmetic additions. They have an intricate texture and design that mirrors the aesthetics and materials of the game’s world.
