How to Turn on Survival Mode in Skyrim Anniversary Edition
Turning on survival mode in Skyrim Anniversary is easy, but to do so you’ll first have to wait until you have completed the tutorial and first quest. After having escaped the dragon attack and made your way past the guards and out of the cave, you should then be prompted to play the game in survival mode. If not, head into the gameplay settings and activate the option.
If you’re not up to speed with what survival mode entails, it switches off health regeneration and then activates a bunch of new mechanics that make traversing the snowy plains of the north far more difficult. You’ll have to consider your character’s warmth, fatigue, and hunger lest they become ill. Also, there are new restrictions on leveling, and fast travel is disabled.
