We've been rolling out as much information as we can about Bethesda's new role-playing game throughout this month, and our readers seem to be as excited as we are about the potential of this great-looking title.

As a little thank you for following our coverage throughout the month, we've put together a couple of desktop wallpapers. Feel free to download one or both of them (in the size of your choice) from the links below.

We also wanted to let you know that there's more to come. We have some exciting new gameplay details and glimpses into the Bethesda studio coming next week. Check back in the coming days and you'll find a dedicated article on the combat of Skyrim, including Bethesda's exciting dual-hand approach to battles. We'll have a video about the talented art team and the work they do at the studio. In addition, watch for a focused piece on Skyrim's completely overhauled user interface and menu system, and how it differs from what you remember in Oblivion.

Need to catch up on the rest of what's going on with Skyrim? Explore our game hub by clicking on the image below.

Thanks again to all our readers, and a special thank you to the folks over at Bethesda for all their hard work on this project we're all so excited about. Enjoy the wallpapers, and have a great weekend!

You're making us drool over this! (I'm excited to an extent though!)

Gameinformer spoils us.

can't wait for more, just replaced my tomb raider one with one of these.

I'm currently using the first Skyrim screen shot as my wallpaper. It looks great. I might give this 2nd one a shot though.

I have my own that I made that i prefer that doesn't have the gameinformer logo slapped over it.

Thanks for letting us know what to expect next week, now hopefully Andrew Reiner's and Andy McNamara's twitters can get a break. :p

I love wallpapers thanks GI.

I'd really like to know if Skyrim will be using a reputation system or not. It's nice to check at anytime just what your standing is with any given group. Also, thanks for the wallaper!

I wonder if the dual hand combat system will make using hand-to-hand combat easier and more interesting to use?

You trying to make me get rid of my Portal slideshow desktop?

Psh. But the cake...
by JakeAuditore Friday, January 21, 2011 at 04:16 PM

The second one resides on my laptop.
by WS-N Friday, January 21, 2011 at 04:18 PM

I'll take that, thank you.
by alert0 Friday, January 21, 2011 at 04:46 PM

Thank you GI for doing such a great job with the exclusive! I'm very excited to see what else you have in store for us!
by Drako889 Friday, January 21, 2011 at 04:51 PM

Sorry, but it would be too painful...seeing the game on my laptop screen, knowing that I won't have it in my hands until November 10, 2011 @12:01a.m!
by Boyzby Friday, January 21, 2011 at 04:52 PM

Very nice. I always appreciate some more cool wallpaper! I can just sit there and stare at it, wishing that I had the game when I'm not thinking about 3DS.
by Scott Friday, January 21, 2011 at 04:53 PM

by kerzie Friday, January 21, 2011 at 05:21 PM

no 1440x900?
by MordeaniisChaos Friday, January 21, 2011 at 06:26 PM

Bummed at the quality of the pictures. The wallpapers are awesome! But the quality of them is pretty crummy for a wallpaper.

thanks for the 1920 x 1080!
