Fan recreates Skyrim’s Whiterun in Far Cry 5 map editor

A particularly dedicated fan of both The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and Far Cry 5 conjoined the two as they recreated the fantasy world of Skyrim in the map editor found in the Ubisoft shooter.

YouTuber Mojo Swoptops shared a video of their creation complete with them exploring the replica, though, they didn’t plan on it being entirely a 1:1 recreation, using other assets at their disposal. The video showcases much of the starter city, including the the likes of The Bannered Mare, Belethor’s General Goods, and all that.

Interestingly, this isn’t Mojo’s first time merging the two. Their channel is full of recreated maps centered around the likes of Dawnstar, Falkreath, and Riften. Meanwhile, they also made Anvil from Oblivion. Outside of Bethesda’s flagship franchise, they’ve also recreated Fallout 4 and Animal Crossing in Far Cry 5.
