It's become something of a meme that Bethesda's The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is available on every platform and in every place under the sun already, but in fact, the game continues to grow its footprint.
Bethesda's immeasurably popular role-playing game's Anniversary Edition launched today, October 6, on the Epic Games Store. The Skyrim Anniversary Edition itself costs $50, while the upgrade for existing owners is $20.
The Anniversary Edition comes with the base game, all three expansions--Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn--and a variety of creation club content. It also includes some new game elements, like fishing.
