📋 About This Mod
I do NOT own any of the audio used in this mod, all credit goes to CD Projekt RED, well known for their famous franchise, The Witcher video game series
.
I've sought permission from CD Projekt RED, and they had given me it, just as stated above, so long as I follow the rules, and don't use their soundtracks/content for financial purposes, and so long as I don't act as though they are partnered with me.
Permission slip in the photo gallery!
The music is actually 100% lore-friendly and fitting to The Elder Scrolls universe, well... the majority of the tracks are - especially if you're doing a Witcher playstyle.
I did this for myself originally and thought I'd share it.
I had to make many edits to some of CD Projekt RED's original tracks in order to piece them perfectly in the game, and also to cut overlapping.
My music mod is by the far best one out there.
I can say that for certain, feel free to try it out and see for yourself ;)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 3,618 endorsements and 173k downloads show this mod is battle-tested.
- Music is hand-edited to cut overlapping and fit Skyrim's flow, not just a lazy copy-paste.
- Lore-friendly and perfect for that Witcher playthrough vibe—if you're into that, this is a no-brainer.
⚠️ Cons
- Only replaces music, so if you're looking for new sound effects or voice lines, this won't help.
- Since it's from 2021, it might not be updated for the latest Skyrim SE patches, though it likely still works.
- If you use other music mods, you'll need to pick one—they'll conflict over the same audio files.
For Skyrim players who want a darker, more Witcher-esque atmosphere without touching gameplay. If you're doing a Witcher-style build or just tired of the vanilla soundtrack, this is for you. Skip if you want new sound effects or if you're happy with the original music.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to install this with a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to keep your load order clean.
- If you're using other music mods, disable them first to avoid conflicts.
- Test in a few different areas (cities, dungeons, wilderness) to hear the full range of tracks.
