About The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition Upgrade DLC
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition Upgrade DLC allows owners of the original Skyrim to experience the enhanced version of the award-winning RPG. This digital upgrade brings remastered graphics, improved effects, and all the content of the Special Edition without needing to repurchase the full game. Simply activate the DLC key on Steam to unlock the upgrade.
Skyrim needs no introduction: it's the epic open-world RPG that won over 200 Game of the Year awards. As the Dragonborn, you wield the power of the dragon tongue to defeat Alduin the World-Eater. The Special Edition retains all the original quests, factions, and exploration while polishing every visual element.
Visual enhancements include remastered art, dynamic depth of field, screen-space reflections, and improved water and snow shaders. These upgrades breathe new life into Skyrim's vast landscapes, from the snowy peaks of the Throat of the World to the lush forests of the Rift. The game runs smoother and looks sharper than ever.
One of the biggest additions in the Special Edition is mod support for console versions (PS4 and Xbox One). PC players already enjoyed mods, but now console players can access thousands of community-created modifications, from gameplay tweaks to total conversions. This expands replayability significantly.
Please note that this DLC requires the base game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on Steam to function. It does not include the original game. Once activated, your existing Skyrim installation will be upgraded to the Special Edition, granting access to all its features and improvements.
