With such minor features conjuring up a positive fan reaction, it doesn’t take too much imagination to think that a full-blown remaster would be widely accepted by fans. Some of the additional Creation Club elements in particular drew some praise, including the addition of fishing and a survival mode. While the announcement of Skyrim: Anniversary Edition may have resulted in jokes from the larger gaming community, there has been optimism about the title. The next mainline installment in the franchise is still early in development, which may leave fans more open to the idea of more Skyrim-related content. It’s a testament to the longevity of Skyrim that Bethesda has viewed it as popular enough to re-release it so many times, but this comes as little comfort to Elder Scrolls fans patiently waiting for The Elder Scrolls 6.
Anniversary Edition is the latest in a long line of Skyrim releases, but as has been remarked by Todd Howard, fans continue to buy the almost 10-year-old game. The 10 year anniversary of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim brings with it yet another version of the game in Skyrim Anniversary Edition.
