A bit of Minecraft in Skyrim: Minecraft Pickaxe Mod

Skyrim and Minecraft are two games that are more alike than you can imagine. Although one’s more combat-focused and the other on mining, building things, and creating your own world; both games are equally about exploration and provide players with the agency to do so.

To a very limited degree, Skyrim even has mining in it—so what better way to inject a little of Minecraft into your Skyrim experience than to have all the pickaxes replaced with a model and texture of Minecraft’s Diamond Pickaxe? This mod by LoganZezima2 will do just that.

The mod might not mesh very well with your personal Skyrim experience, but a little bit of lighthearted modding never hurt anyone.

Now if only someone would come along and mod Creepers, Endermen, Squids, and the rest of the Minecraft bestiary into Skyrim, we’ll be all set.
