How Skyrim On Switch Compares To Other Platforms
Once upon a time, a company named Bethesda Game Studios created The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Six years later, they're about to do it again.
Skyrim on Nintendo Switch technically marks the third release of the game, and it comes out tomorrow along with Skyrim VR. I played through the opening sequence in the original Playstation 3 release, the Special Edition remaster on Playstation 4, and the PC Special Edition on ultra settings without mods. Then, Javy Gwaltney joined me to discuss how the Switch version compares to each previous iteration. The answer: favorably!

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
