What if the Dragonborn instead had to protect their family? It's all on the table with this gory, spooky zombie mod that has way more play to it than fans might initially suspect.

The best one is the ability to barricade doors, though, which offers an extra bit of roleplaying potential for those who don't just want to pit a zombie horde against their Dragonborn. One of the big features of dark souls that makes it feel like dark souls is the way the stats are tweaked to make it feel like youre never too far above or below an enemy in terms of strength. There are some really nice subtle touches in this mod, too. The player gets to control how the zombie outbreak plays out, and in a sandbox world like Skyrim, that means untold amounts of chaos and violence. This mod offers a variety of different zombie outbreak scenarios, each with different settings that can be customized at any time. That's what 28 Days and a Bit 5 – Zombie Mutation is for. Sure, there are Draugr basically everywhere, and a few quests that are concerned with necromancy, but there's nothing like a full-fledged zombie breakout waiting in the wings, just underneath the surface of Skyrim's world.

Another popular fiction trope that Skyrim only touches the edges of, however, is the zombie.
