Oh my fucking god.

Season 5 No GIF by The Office


Is this included with gamepass or because its a special edition will it be a purchase? I have the special edition on PS5 I think. Need to check.

This is probably to stop the lawsuit (if its still happening) they are going through with the creatorclub content (possibly) as that was going to stop the MS acquisition wasn't it?

If they add it to this edition this is how they pay the royalties for the creators to keep up with their contractual obligations

They really like beating a dead horse, don't they?

Don't get me wrong. I love this game and I appreciate that they keep supporting it, but this game is a decade old and can be played on 2 generations old consoles.

Isn't it a waste of resources at this point or do they expect to sell a lot of current gen versions?

(Ps. Please add ray tracing.)

voted poster of the decade by bots
Would be nice if they actually upgraded the textures significantly........too bad it doesn't look like that's the case.
I'm guessing they are releasing a PS5 version as it's an older game and most of the work was done already.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
So it's just Skyrim Special Edition, bundled with 500 fake mod-dollars?

Who would buy this? Who the hell doesn't already own Skryim at this point? It keeps getting re-released like GTAV

I have the PS4 version from 3,000 yrs ago that i started and never did much with. If the next gen upgrade makes it all beautiful and 60fps, id gladly start over and play from scratch on PS5

GTA5 released at the tail end of the console cycle and begin of a new one. It got a release seven years ago and clearly was able to take advantage of the new hardware; it will be getting an upgrade to take advantage of the even newer consoles and presumably deliver a 60FPS experience for folks who probably just want to jump into the online mode. It also has an extensive current user player base.

Skyrim on the other hand has been rereleased to hell and back on every conceivable system and the engine isn't likely to see anything impressive other than what. . .60FPS at 4K. This is despite FALLOUT 76 receiving no such attention and still running like garbage (even on PC).
