A hunting overhaul mod for Skyrim Special Edition

Hunterborn SE is a modification for the popular fantasy role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The mod overhauls the hunting system in the game, adding new game mechanics to make the gameplay more immersive.

Hunterborn SE is one of a large selection of mods for Skyrim. Mods add or change the gameplay and are often created by fans and enthusiasts with the help of other apps, such as Skyrim Creation Kit. As a result, mods are not typically supported by official game developers. That being said, it is often easy to find support within its large modding community.

More detailed animal hunting experiences

The central mechanic of Hunterborn SE revolves around a more realistic and involved hunting system. It includes changes like the amount of meat yielded corresponding to animal size. The mod also adds several steps to the process of harvesting loot, including field dressing and skinning killed animals.

Additional items

Hunterborn SE also adds new items to the game, such as custom meat types for different animals. It even goes so far as to have mudcrabs and slaughterfish yield meat. The mod also adds several hunter knives for players to find, craft, and use when hunting.

In-depth gameplay

Hunterborn SE adds many hunting-related aspects to Skyrim, such as primitive cooking, allowing players to sear meats over open flames. There are also animal lures to assist you with catching animals and much more.

Comprehensive mod with requirements

Hunterborn SE undoubtedly adds a wealth of new content to the game. Unfortunately, not all features are compatible with the base game. It also requires Dragonborn DLC and Dawnguard DLC and has compatibility issues with other mods, such as Frostfall.
