Skyrim Special Edition: 15 Mods That Must Come To PS4 & Xbox One

There are few mods that have as big an impact on your day-to-day Skyrim experience as this. Immersive Patrols adds patrols from each of the major factions to the game, who wander the wilderness in search of enemies, and take on rival factions in impressive skirmishes.

As well as the impromptu skirmishes, there are dedicated warzones, where patrols fight for controls of regions and forts, that fall under the control of whoever the victor is in a given battle. As all this unfolds, you can choose whether to observe the battles from afar or get stuck in yourself.

Pretty though the wilderness in the Skyrim Special Edition will be, it's likely to suffer from the original's feeling of emptiness, and this is a great way to make it all feel a bit more volatile and exciting. It's only fitting for a game that takes place on the brink of - and then during - a civil war.
