Skyrimboasts longevity unlike very few games. Bethesda’s 2011 open-world RPG remains extremely popular to this day, with a dedicated community of players hopping on for theirSkyrimfix on a daily basis. This is partly due to Bethesda’s insistence on re-releasing the game multiple times, ensuring it has stayed relevant throughout multiple console generations. The community itself has played a big role in its enduring popularity, too, with talented modders releasing thousands of amazingSkyrimmodsover the years to help keep the game feeling like it could have been released in the modern day.
Gamers can now head to Steam and pick upSkyrimfor just $3.99. This represents a massive 90% discount on the game, and a new lowest-ever price from the previous price of $7.99. Best of all, it’s the Special Edition that is on offer at this price. This means that it comes with all ofSkyrim’s main DLC,Dawnguard,Hearthfire, andDragonborn. For any gamer who hasn’t experiencedSkyrimbefore, it’s the perfect opportunity to pick up Bethesda’s RPG with everything included. Looking at it from a cost-per-hour perspective, $3.99 represents ridiculous value for money considering the amount of content the game has to offer.
Skyrim Drops to New Lowest Ever Steam Price
Any gamer who wants to take advantage of this epicSkyrimdeal must act fast. Steam considers it a weekend deal, so it is set to end on January 20. Even if this particular deal is set to expire very soon,Skyrimhas generally been on sale frequently on Steam. Now that Bethesda has broken the 90% price barrier, hopefully, it isn’t the last timeSkyrimdrops to $3.99.
It’s easy to forget that Bethesda actuallyannouncedThe Elder Scrolls 6back in 2018, but the studio has been very quiet on the long-awaited sequel since. To this day, it’s not clear how far in development the game actually was when it was announced, and many feel that Bethesda jumped the gun a little with that. WithStarfieldnow complete, the pathway is a little more clear for Bethesda to discuss Elder Scrolls 6. It will be interesting to see if there’s any movement in this regard in 2025.
