Winner of more than 200 Game of the Year Awards, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition brings Bethesda Game Studios' epic fantasy to life in stunning detail. This is the complete Skyrim: the critically acclaimed adventure remastered from the ground up, with all three official add-ons and full support for Creations included.
Become the Dragonborn
The ancient dragon Alduin has returned to Tamriel, and you are the Dragonborn, the one soul born with the power to face him. How you answer that call is entirely up to you. Follow the main quest into the heart of the dragon crisis, choose a side in the civil war between the Stormcloaks and the Imperial Legion, or ignore destiny altogether and lose yourself in the guilds, the wilds and the hundreds of stories tucked into every corner of the province.
A Remaster Worthy of the Name
The Special Edition rebuilds Skyrim with remastered art and effects, volumetric god rays, dynamic depth of field and screen-space reflections. Sunlight breaks through the clouds over Whiterun, rivers catch the glow of a setting sun, and the autumn forests of the Rift burn gold. It is the same world players fell in love with in 2011, rendered the way memory always insisted it looked.
All Three Add-Ons Included
- Dawnguard
- Choose between the Dawnguard, an order of vampire hunters, and the ancient vampire lords they exist to destroy. The choice reshapes how you play, from crossbows and armored trolls to the Vampire Lord's own powers.
- Hearthfire
- Buy land and build a home of your own, from a modest cabin to a sprawling estate with an armory, alchemy tower and greenhouse. Adopt children, hire stewards and give your adventurer somewhere to come home to.
- Dragonborn
- Travel to the island of Solstheim and face Miraak, the first Dragonborn, in a story that reaches beyond Skyrim's borders. New shouts, new gear and the chance to ride a dragon wait on the far side of the sea.
No Limits with Creations
Skyrim Special Edition brings the power of Bethesda Game Studios Creations into the game. New quests, environments, characters, dialogue, armor and weapons are all a few clicks away, made by a community that has been expanding this world for more than a decade. However you want your Skyrim to play, someone has probably already built it, and if not, the tools are waiting.
Whether this is your first climb up the 7,000 Steps or a homecoming years in the making, Skyrim rewards every hour you give it. Learn your first Shout, pick a road out of Helgen and see where it takes you.
