The Elder Scrolls Anthology Offers A Lifetime Of Role-Playing

Eat your veggies! If you want to consume all of Bethesda's epic The Elder Scrolls Anthology, you'll have to live to be very, very old.

Today, Bethesda announced The Elder Scroll Anthology, a deluxe packaging of every game, add-on, and expansion in the storied RPG franchise.

For $79.99, you'll get:

The Elder Scrolls Arena

The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
   o    Tribunal
   o    Bloodmoon

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
   o    Knights of the Nine
   o    Shivering Isles

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
   o    Dawnguard
   o    Hearthfire
   o    Dragonborn

Five Physical Maps detailing the lands of Tamriel, Iliac Bay, Morrowind, Cyrodiil, and Skyrim.

The Elder Scrolls Anthology will release on September 10th exclusively for PC.

Our Take:
Game collections don't get much bigger than this. While it's worth noting that all of these games are currently available for digital download (Arena and Daggerfall free on Bethesda's website), this is still an incredible value. I don't think that's it's outlandish to suggest you could get well more than 500 hours out of this package depending on how much of a completist you are. I'm also curious to see Arena and Daggerfall, two games I'm not familiar with. Even if you're just a curious about Elder Scrolls, the Skyim and Oblivion content alone makes this worth a purchase.
