It’s a testament to the longevity of Skyrim that Bethesda has viewed it as popular enough to re-release it so many times, but this comes as little comfort to Elder Scrolls fans patiently waiting for The Elder Scrolls 6. Anniversary Edition is the latest in a long line of Skyrim releases, but as has been remarked by Todd Howard, fans continue to buy the almost 10-year-old game.

While this doesn't mean a Nintendo Switch version of Skyrim Remastered won't happen in the future, Nintendo fans will be disappointed not to have a confirmed Skyrim Remastered release date for the console.The 10 year anniversary of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim brings with it yet another version of the game in Skyrim Anniversary Edition. We look forward to revealing specific games and details in the future." "While we are not confirming any specific titles at this time, we are pleased to announce our partnership with Nintendo and support of the Switch. "We’re happy to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Nintendo on the video," a Bethesda spokesperson told. However, in a statement released after the Nintendo Switch reveal, the Skyrim Remastered developer said that it wouldn't be confirming any specific Nintendo Switch titles at this time. The evidence continued to mount up when Bethesda was listed as one of the developer partners for the new Nintendo device. Nintendo fans assumed Skyrim Special Edition would be given a March 2017 release date alongside the launch of the Nintendo Switch. Skyrim Remastered may have featured heavily in the Nintendo Switch reveal, but that doesn't mean it's being released for the console formerly known as the Nintendo NX. "We also understand that some of you want to read reviews before you make your decision, and if that’s the case we encourage you to wait for your favourite reviewers to share their thoughts." "While we will continue to work with media, streamers, and YouTubers to support their coverage – both before and after release – we want everyone, including those in the media, to experience our games at the same time," reads a Bethesda statement. Some commentators have described the move as anti-consumer, but Bethesda says it wants everybody to experience its games at the same time. This will apply to all Bethesda games going forward, which means that Dishonored 2 review code will also be sent out late. It was recently confirmed that Skyrim Remastered reviews will be delayed, after Bethesda announced a new review policy ahead of the Special Edition release date.īethesda said that review code for Skyrim Remastered would be sent out 24-hours before launch. It might be a while before you read your first Skyrim Special Edition review, because Bethesda decided to withold review code until the day before release.
