Skyrim Switch is definitely still on the horizon. The (abeit) short trailer released this morning shows that it is actually a ‘thing’ and does exist.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Nintendo Switch includes all-new gameplay features like motion controls for combat and lockpicking, outfits and gear from The Legend of Zelda. Take down enemies with the Master Sword, protect yourself with the Hylian Shield or look heroic in the Champion’s Tunic. It all sounds quite lovely and grand.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim for the Nintendo Switch will also include all official add-ons: Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn. Which is a nice warming bonus, I was fearing it would be a £50 game with no DLC attached for a moment there.

Plus tap other compatible amiibo to gain additional loot including those from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild series, 30th Anniversary – The Legend of Zelda series, Super Smash Bros. series, and The Legend of Zelda series.
