An interesting glitch in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim turns the game into an Arvak simulator. Gamers have encountered a wide variety of bugs in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim since its release, and users are still coming across new glitches while playing the game.
As an example, a strange bug ends up breaking Skyrim’s textures, making it seem like the game is years older than its actual release. This glitch only affects the ground textures in one area, while the rest of the world looks completely normal. Now, another Skyrim fan recently came across a different bug that turns the game into an Arvak simulator.
A Reddit user named kinokocreeper has shared a new clip from The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim with this glitch, showing how they suddenly managed to become Arvak in the game. As seen in the video, kinokocreeper presses the button to get on their horse, but their player model appears to have gotten stuck while performing this action. Kinokocreeper’s character can be seen floating nearby as they try to move Arvak around, and they also confirm that they haven’t installed any horse mods in Skyrim.
As they were unable to use the UI in this form, kinokocreeper states that they had to restart Skyrim to resolve the issue. The user claims to have been playing Skyrim for eight years, but this is the first time they have encountered such a glitch. Kinokocreeper also appears to be a fan of Arvak in Skyrim, as they have praised the horse on multiple occasions in the comments section of the post.
Some fans comment on how much they love this bug in Skyrim, while one player mentions that they would have spent a considerable amount of exploring the world as Arvak in this situation. One user jokingly states that kinokocreeper swapped souls with the horse, with a few fans giving the bug a rating of 11 out of 10. The rest of the comments are also filled with jokes, as one player adds Arvak’s name to The Elder Scrolls 6’s title.
Now that Starfield has been officially released, Bethesda has confirmed that The Elder Scrolls 6 is now in early stages of development. The next chapter in this franchise was in pre-production until this point, so fans have confirmation of The Elder Scrolls 6 being in active development. However, the game is undoubtedly years away, so players will have to wait for a long time for it to come out.
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim – Anniversary Edition is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
