If you’d like to headshot cultists from afar with a bow, the option is there, or you can get in close and swing you sword. This flexibility plays into the game’s combat, too. In fact, why not all three? Maybe you’ll get married and raise a child in a home you designed yourself. Train to become a thief, a mage, or an assassin if you’d prefer. If you’d like to be an explorer, hunting through caves for rare treasure to use or sell, that’s totally fine. Should the Nintendo Switch be the new home of your stealthy archer or your fireball-wielding mage?Īn open-ended sandbox, Skyrim casts you as Dragonborn – the chosen one – but that’s about the only time it pigeonholes the player. Bethesda have ported it to device after device, and for good reason – Skyrim is one of gaming’s best player-dictated experiences.
A game that can be played on last-gen consoles, current-gen consoles, PC and even Alexa-devices.
