Bethesda today announced the upcoming release of yet another version of Skyrim, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition.

This new version of the game is set to launch on Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X in addition to Sony’s PlayStation 4. PlayStation 5 owners will be able to play the PS4 version via backwards compatibility while Xbox One players will be able to upgrade to the Xbox Series X version via a paid upgrade process.

The price for the Xbox One-to-Xbox Series X upgrade hasn’t been announced yet though it’ll likely be around as much as the Xbox upgrade process for Call of Duty: Vanguard which was also announced this week.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition is currently set to release on all supported platforms on November 11th later this year, a whole decade to the date since its original release. It will include all of the content from the Special Edition, the Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn expansions, a new fishing mechanic, at least 500 pieces of player-created content, and a number of additional quests and other in-game content.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
