Skyrim Special Edition was released in 2016 with remastered visuals, new content, and unlocking mods for consoles. With Skyrim Anniversary Edition launching on the exact 10th anniversary date (November 11), Bethesda is unlocking four popular Creation Club mods, adding them free to all owners of Skyrim Special Edition. While it’s easy to be snarky that The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim has been released and re-released many times over the last decade, there’s no denying it’s a fantastic open world RPG that retains a thriving modding community. And sometimes the publisher milks that for all its worth.
