ASkyrimplayer online has shared hilarious footage of a mod that makes a World War 2 soldier fight a dragon. This clip goes to show that players truly can find anamazingSkyrimmodfor just about anything.
Over the years, there has been no game that has cultivated a dedicated modding community quite likeSkyrim. Over eleven years after the game was first released, the community continues to achieve magical things with the game. Mods can range from the smallest tweaks to total conversions, yet no matter what, they always feel like substantial additions to the game. One recentSkyrimmod allows players to wield aStar Warsblasterin-game, which shows just how far the community is taking mods at the moment. Sometimes, it’s the mods that aren’t lore-friendly that have the most potential for fun antics, and that’s certainly on display here.

The hilarious clip comes from Redditor Centurion4396, who posted the footage of the soldier tucked away in an outpost as a dragon flies by. The soldier, clad from head to toe in full World War 2 garb, unloads a magazine from a heavy machine gun eventually defeating it. In reality, it never stood a chance. There are plenty of ways tokill dragons inSkyrim, but this latest method is definitely among the most efficient so far. Unfortunately, the Redditor failed to share exactly which mod this is, but it likely originated from Nexus Mods.
Interestingly, it’s not the first time a user has modded the game in this way. One recentSkyrim VRmod broughtCall of Dutyweaponsinto Tamriel, providing an immersive warzone experience in the Bethesda RPG. It’s certainly a change of pace, that’s for sure. In years gone by, many other RPGs have been compared toSkyrimwith the tagline “likeSkyrim, but with guns,” and these types of mods are a great way to bring that into reality.
It’s essential for Bethesda to ensure that whenThe Elder Scrolls 6eventually releases, it retains the ability to mod with the same versatility thatSkyrimhas. The game’s modding scene has been arguably the biggest factor of its enduring popularity, and it would be a foolish move for Bethesda to tarnish that. This is entirely speculation, as the company has always embraced modding with open arms, and it seems to be taking the same approach withStarfield. WithThe Elder Scrolls 6likely still years away, though, that’s not something gamers have to worry about any time soon.
