Skyrim Special Edition is ready for the stores!

Category:Latest News

Yet here we are – five years later – and we’re thrilled to announce that Skyrim Special Edition has gone gold, and that October 28 launch date is fast-approaching. All the memories – fan tributes, Mods, personal stories and even that phenomenon of taking an arrow to the knee – feel fresh again. The Special Edition features a significant overhaul to the game, including:

  • Mod support on consoles
  • Remastered art and effects
  • Volumetric lighting (“God Rays”)
  • Dynamic Depth of Field
  • Screen-space reflections
  • New snow and water shaders

Soon, players will be able experience the game on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4 – with mods – for the very first time, and the Special Edition will include native 4K support for the PlayStation 4 Pro. But what’s most exciting to us is that Special Edition also means a new generation of players can create new Skyrim Memories and learn what it means to be Dragonborn for the very first time.

Skyrim Special Edition going gold also marks the first time we’re celebrating a release as an international studio. We can’t say enough about the hard work and love our Montreal studio poured into this project.

It’s enough to celebrate with a drink. Pass the mead!

In addition to our going gold announcement, we’re happy to share more technical details on the release of Skyrim Special Edition, including what you’ll need to be ready on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

In case you were curious to know what Mr. Toad's glamour might've looked like in #TWAU Season 1 - if he could've afforded it - here's some concept art for you.

Now how could he not afford a glamour and yet afford to drive a car in NYC? 🤷
