The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an action role-playing open
world video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by
Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth installment in The Elder Scrolls
action role-playing video game series, following The Elder Scrolls IV:
Oblivion. Skyrim was released on November 11, 2011 for Microsoft
Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Skyrim's main story revolves around the player character's efforts to
defeat Alduin, a Dragon who is prophesied to destroy the world. Set two
hundred years after Oblivion, the game takes place in the fictional
province of Skyrim, upon the continent of Tamriel, and the planet of
Nirn. The open world gameplay of the Elder Scrolls series returns in
Skyrim; the player can explore the land at will and ignore or postpone
the main quest indefinitely.
Skyrim was a critical and commercial success, shipping over 7 million copies to retailers within the first week of release.
The Empire of Tamriel is on the edge. The High King of Skyrim has been
murdered. Alliances form as claims to the throne are made. In the midst
of this conflict, a far more dangerous, ancient evil is awakened.
Dragons, long lost to the passages of the Elder Scrolls, have returned
to Tamriel. The future of Skyrim, even the Empire itself, hangs in the
balance as they wait for the prophesized Dragonborn to come; a hero born
with the power of The Voice, and the only one who can stand amongst the
dragons
