You may have seen that one of the contenders in our game gauntlet, where readers vote on which is the greatest, was unstoppable – The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim annihilated Fallout 3 and omnislashed Final Fantasy VII. It felled Elden Ring without using spirit ashes, and it survived The Last of Us’ hordes. Skyrim, a pioneering open-world game, has enjoyed a lot of success over the past 13 years. It’s not surprising that the gaming community is clamoring to hear about its sequel.
