Skyrim Special Edition: Free To Owners Of Original

Fancier Fus Ro Dahs

Skyrim doesn't feel old enough to have a shiny new edition with enhanced bells and whistles, but that's exactly what's coming on October 28th. It'll be released on current-gen consoles as well as PC, and if you own either the Legendary Edition of the original, or the base game plus all DLC bought separately, you'll receive a free upgrade to the new hotness. You can see it below.

Skip to 3.17 for immediate Skyrim. I expect the jump in graphics might be less impressive on PC than shown in the leap from one console generation to the next, particularly for those playing with fancy mods.

I demand a Daggerfall Special Edition. Daggerfall with these graphics. I demand it fall into my lap right now.
