The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Dragons are back, the civil war is raging, and you are the Dragonborn. Everything you need for Skyrim and its add-ons Dawnguard, Dragonborn and Hearthfire.

Start with the main quest

Released in November 2011, Skyrim takes you to the cold northern province of Tamriel, homeland of the Nords. Two hundred years after the events of Oblivion, the Empire is weakened, Skyrim is torn apart by civil war – and Alduin the World-Eater has returned. This hub gathers every Skyrim page on Tamriel Saga, from the first steps out of Helgen to the hidden corners of Blackreach.
