Product detailsThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series, following 2006’s The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2011.
\nThe game is set 200 years after the events of Oblivion, and takes place in Skyrim, the northernmost province of Tamriel.
\n Its main story focuses on the player’s character, the Dragonborn, on
\ntheir quest to defeat Alduin the World-Eater, a dragon who is prophesied
\n to destroy the world. Over the course of the game, the player completes
\n quests and develops the character by improving skills. The game
\ncontinues the open world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the
\nplayer to travel anywhere in the game world at any time, and to ignore
\nor postpone the main storyline indefinitely.
\nSkyrim was developed using the Creation Engine, which was rebuilt specifically for the game. The team opted for a unique and more diverse open world than Oblivion’s Imperial Province of Cyrodiil, which game director and executive producer Todd Howard considered less interesting by comparison. Upon release, the game received critical acclaim, with praise for its character advancement, world design, visuals, and dual-wielding combat, and is considered to be one of the greatest video games ever made.
\n Criticism targeted the melee combat, dragon battles, and numerous
\ntechnical issues present at launch. The game shipped over seven million
\ncopies within the first week of its release, and sold 30 million copies
\non all platforms by 2016, making it one of the best-selling video games in history.
