Anyone hoping that Bethesda has special plans in store for the fifth Elder Scrolls installment should see what the studio has plans for the Fallout hit, if anything at all. While it doesn't seem likely that Skyrim may receive anything more than a simple port to next-gen consoles for a 10th Anniversary Edition, Fallout: New Vegas' 10th anniversary is only days away on October 19th.
While there is a minuscule chance that the studio has plans to surprise Elder Scrolls fans this way, they shouldn't hold their breath for anything related to the next installment anytime soon.
It is worth mentioning that Bethesda has been known to occasionally drop game announcements only months away from the launch, such as with Fallout 4. RELATED: Skyrim PS5, Xbox Series X Ports Seem Likely, But Bethesda Has Another Game That Deserves Them MoreĪnything to do with TES 6 is the least likely of them all, simply because The Elder Scrolls 6 is likely still years away, according to Bethesda. The company's highest priority right now is Starfield's development, and even that doesn't have a release date or window yet. Perhaps Bethesda should utilize these to its advantage to release an improved Anniversary Edition next year, but for now, that's one of Skyrim's many mysteries.
So, it's possible that a Skyrim 10th Anniversary Edition is on the way, but the real question is whether or not it would come with enhanced graphics or simply be a repacked version of Special Edition for next-gen consoles. The graphics shown in Special Edition are now somewhat outdated, with some modders still releasing character aesthetic and scenery enhancement mods to keep up with modern standards. In 2016, on Skyrim's 5th anniversary, the game had sold over 30 million copies and followed up with Special Edition, a remastered version of the game that bundled together all DLCs into one package, and would come to the PS4 and Xbox One as well as Switch and a VR edition for PlayStation VR later on. However, since nothing formal regarding Skyrim and next-gen have been announced yet, some fans are speculating that Bethesda has plans to release a Skyrim 10th Anniversary Edition, possibly with further improved graphics. After an easy money grab by sending the hit game to the Switch, Bethesda likely has plans to do the same thing with next-gen consoles because players will buy it. It's all but inevitable that Bethesda will port Skyrim to the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles.
