Skyrim Special Edition Coming Free to PC Gamers With All DLCs

Bethesda announced that PC gamers will be able to get the Skyrim Special Edition remaster for free as long as they have a copy of Skyrim with all of the DLCs.

Any Skyrim fan should already own the game, so it shouldn't be a problem for them in getting this remaster. Those players who play Skyrim on PC should consider themselves extremely lucky, as Bethesda will give out free copies of the announced Skyrim: Special Edition to everyone who already owns a version of Skyrim with every DLC.

Skyrim: Special Edition is a remaster of the popular 2011 addition to The Elder Scrolls series. It comes with plenty of graphic enhancements, such as remastered art and effects, volumetric god rays, adding dynamic depth of field which made the game's already remarcable visuals even better. The game will offer modding on console, with the trailer showing the similar to Fallout 4's newly-implemented mod support interface.

It still remains unclear as to whether there will be new content with the Skyrim: Special Edition, other than the graphical improvements. Even without any content changes, this new version looks as impressive as ever, so it should warrant a second purchase from even most casual of fans.

The announcement that was made of the new Skyrim Remaster wasn't a surprise. Rumors were circling around the internet for almost a week at this point. With that being said, the fans seem to be extremely enthusiastic about getting back in Skyrim this October, complete with every game DLC and upgraded graphics. PC users were able to use mods for a long time, which means that, they should be able to play the game with more than superior graphics in the remaster version. The difference is that, the graphical changes made to the game in the Special Edition of Skyrim are made by Bethesda officials, so it means that the game will run smoother than it would with all the graphic mods.
