It has been 15 years since The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim first launched, and Bethesda Game Studios is marking the milestone for what it says is its most played game of all time. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition is currently available for up to 80% off across all platforms – for those who, somehow, haven’t purchased the game before.
There is also something new for existing players in the form of a curated Creations Bundle, available to purchase in-game on PC, Xbox and PlayStation. Among the Creations included are Legacy of Orsinium, a DLC-sized expansion, along with custom-voiced follower Kaitryn Fair-Shadows and Legendary Dungeons: Dwarven Delves, which brings locations from other Elder Scrolls games into Skyrim. More Creations are included beyond these three.
The celebrations also extend to The Elder Scrolls Online. ZeniMax Online Studios recently launched ESO Season Two: Echoes of Skyrim, which has made the Greymoor Chapter part of the base game for free for all players. Greymoor includes Skyrim locations such as the city of Solitude and Blackreach, as well as the Antiquities system and the Dark Heart of Skyrim saga.
Following that, the Markarth DLC also joined the ESO base game for free last week. It adds the Reach zone and the conclusion to Greymoor’s main storyline. ESO players can also take part in a free, limited-time Golden Pursuit campaign for the anniversary, earning Skyrim-themed rewards by exploring the Western Skyrim zone until 2 December 2026.
