According to a Portuguese gaming news site, Skyrim: Anniversary Edition might be coming to a brand-new platform decently soon.
In the months since the release of Skyrim: Anniversary Edition, the loyal community of players that Skyrim has cultivated over the last decade has revitalized in a tremendous way. With a plethora of new content for players to explore, Skyrim: Anniversary Edition has brought in both new and returning players alike. Now, it seems the newest edition of Skyrim might be coming to an all-new platform.
One of the many qualities of Skyrim that captures the initial attention of so many players is its availability. In addition to the Anniversary Edition, Skyrim has three different versions that span across three console generations, including the Xbox Series X and the PS5. Though, apparently, the newest version of Skyrim will be ported onto an additional platform that many fans were unsure would get the same treatment.
SwitchBrasil, a Portuguese news site that specializes in Nintendo Switch coverage, revealed that the Digital Game Rating Committee in Taiwan had a Nintendo Switch version of Skyrim: Anniversary Edition listed in its database. If this news is to be believed, then it’s likely that Skyrim: Anniversary Edition will be released on Nintendo Switch at some point in the future.
The original port of Skyrim on Nintendo Switch was already a welcome surprise, but to have the Anniversary Edition potentially releasing on the Switch as well will be sure to excite plenty of Nintendo fans. However, it’s important to note that Bethesda hasn’t officially announced the port, so it’s important for fans to take this news with a grain of salt.
Plus, it’s rather odd that a Switch port of Skyrim: Anniversary Edition would release several months after the original release. It could simply come down to the hardware limitations of the Nintendo Switch compared to that of other consoles. Not to mention that both the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Skyrim had been released one year prior to the Nintendo Switch port.
In any case, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for The Elder Scrolls series going forward. It’s been almost four years since The Elder Scrolls 6 was officially announced, and many fans are starting to wonder when Bethesda will release additional information. While E3 2022 was canceled, it’s likely that Bethesda, as well as other major publishers and studios, will host digital events that will discuss upcoming projects in further detail. It’s also possible that the Switch port of Skyrim Anniversary Edition could also be officially unveiled within the same timeframe.
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim Anniversary Edition is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
