Aug 22, 2023Great game that has hundreds of hours of story, fantastic graphics, and exciting dragon battles. The Switch port holds up well. There are always new ways to experience skyrim, even if you have been there many times before

May 11, 2023Great game but I don't feel exploration is encouraged as everywhere looks the same once your running in the wilderness.
The colour pallet could be a bit less in dark and grim.
Too many warp points it's just confusing. -

Apr 10, 2023WOW!!! what a load on content. Playing it on the Switch is awesome. Plays and sounds perfect. It has a good story which other open world games )like Breath Of The Wild had nothing to offer) Yes the Graphics are only a touch better then the PS3/360 but it is still just a great game. Huge worlds and tons of quests. Great job Nintendo/Bethesda

Apr 5, 2023This game is so bad. Skyrim is not good even for 2011. I don't understand why most people love this. Most overrated RPG of all time.

Oct 7, 2022So far this is one of the best open world games on the switch! The gameplay still holds up great in 2019!
-
Oct 6, 2022I can't believe they finally added anniversary content to the switch version! There are some really solid additions to the game that breathe new life into this already impressive rpg experience. I'm really enjoying the new quests and armor, and the new spells are fantastic additions as well.

Aug 25, 2022i dont like how the things works here. the gameplay is very low and is not good
-
Jun 30, 2022this game is not good. the soundtrack is awful and i have no fun playing til the end
-
Jun 28, 2022Revolutionary open world game that was held back a bit due to technical issues.
-
Jun 4, 2022I have spend some 500 hours with this beauty. I can still remember how much I waited for this game. If you like dragons, swords, thiefs, spells and beautiful snow-top mountains this game is for you.

Feb 21, 2022jugué skyrim por primera vez en la nintendo switch, (mi pc nunca pudo correrlo, Latinoamérica que puedo decir) y puedo decir que es una experiencia espectacular. Un port muy bien logrado. una alegría disfrutar del tes5.

Feb 20, 2022The last game Bethesda ever made. Press F to pay respects to the fallen giant
-
Feb 16, 2022At times, this is like the coolest, most satisfying and expansive game ever - But it does have its ugly parts, mechanics like diseases come to mind, or that it has quite a lot of bugs. Still really good fun!

Nov 22, 2021Skyrim offers a fun romp through its land. You can really customize your character. Great adventure game overall.

Aug 31, 2021Don't forget to put in a hundred useful modifications. Including Thomas the train replacing dragons
-
Jun 28, 2021An amazing RPG packed with loads of stuff to do.
If you love RPG's, you'll only love this game -
Jun 5, 2021I have spent 800 hours in this game with my character Alsmen Blackwell... Nuff said.
I love this game. -
Jun 5, 2021Сотни часов и играй не зачищена.
Множество прохождений. И она не надоедает.

May 27, 2021So this game was good in 2011 but for now its bungled. Its a waste of money to buy it in 2021.

Apr 25, 2021If it wasn't for the bugs, this would be pretty good. I'm not much of an open world guy, but I'm trying to be fair to this game while setting my personal preferences aside.
-
Apr 1, 2021I enjoyed this game very much. It's a mess of glitches, but I find that as part of the fun. I don't have any problems with the game.
-
Mar 17, 2021Such a fun game. Has been one of my favourites since a kid. The Thieves Guild quest line is so cool, as is the Dark Brotherhood.

Oct 22, 2020Skyrim portable I'd never imagine that before the switch, it's very pleasant to play Skyrim any place any time
-
Sep 28, 2020Great port of a great game. Skyrim is one of the most played games for a reason. Its endlessly customizable and a blast. My issue with this port is that it still has many glitches from the original release. I thought maybe they would've patched out the more annoying ones. It has crashed twice on me.
-
Sep 19, 2020this game is so bad. it is buggy, RPG mechanics removed, choices removed, crafting dumbed down, weapon and armor designs are mostly oversized and ugly.
if not for mod suppport, this game would definitely be rated so much worse. -
Sep 14, 2020I'm sorry, I played it only in 2020, but I really didn't like it. The whole game is just wandering in infinite lookalike auto-generated labyrinths..
-
Aug 19, 2020This is an excellent port to switch, which is great to play in handheld as well as docked.
As an RPG, however, this game is dull - repetitive fetch quests, no real consequence of decisions, overpowered main character... meh. -

Aug 10, 2020Have it on the switch and its very well done. ran into a few sound glitches and it crashed 1 time in my 400 hours of playtime. But thats extremely acceptable for how old this game is. GET THIS GAME
-
Jul 26, 2020Still my favorite action RPG after all these years, and this is a great port.

Jul 11, 2020Well, without further ADO.) Hey, buy Skyrim.)) Excellent port, no sagging anywhere, technically everything is perfect. As an action-RPG game, I also liked it, a lot of spells, weapons, armor, dragons in the end.) What else is needed.
-
Jul 6, 2020juegaso, muy recomendable, muy rejugable por su cantidad de mods, esperando el 6º
-
Jul 4, 2020Yes... another port of Skyrim.
But this comes with "you can feel the lock picking with the HD vibration!" wich is good.
Also, I really enjoy that now I can take it ANYWERE :D -
Jun 29, 2020Fun way to play the ultimate fantasy adventure game on the go when your bored.
-
Jun 30, 2020It shows its age. And it is not a bad thing. This game has defined generations. It is so vast, detailed, just amazing!
-
Jun 22, 2020In a world of open world Links and Witchers, Skyrim hasn't aged very well. Great exploration, for a while. Combat can be fun if you're sneaking or dragon shouting. The worst thing about Skyrim though is how static the world is. The story is made up of pretty pieces but none of them move.
-
Jun 21, 2020Skyrim, um RPG épico, é melhor ainda ainda quando se joga no modo portátil, ainda mais no Switch que roda com perfeição.
-
Jun 21, 2020Most ports to the switch are, well disappointing. Skyrim on the other hand is somewhat like the ps4 and Xbox ports, minus the mods. Other than that it's a great portable version on Skyrim. Also expect vanilla crashes, but that's pretty much all console versions without mods.
-
Jun 21, 2020ah skyrim it truly is a special gem i don't know why really but i LOVE the world of skyrim story sucks? yup quests are generic? yes but i still love skyrim not for what it is but what u can make it to be great sandbox would recommend

Apr 26, 2020A surprisingly competent port of the old classic. It comes with all the good and bad of Skyrim: a great open world, tons of quests and many hours of fun but there are the usual glitches and bugs too. Load times are slow and there is no chance of having mods but on the other hand it's still the full Skyrim experience in portable format including all of its DLCs.
-
Mar 23, 2020It's just an amazing port. To play Skyrim on a handheld is incredible and Bethesda has done flawless work. It runs perfect and look as good as ever. Good job Bethesda. This is one of the best version of Skyrim.

Mar 7, 2020Huge World filled with Quests Monster Secrets on every meter in the World there is Something cool to see or Explore. You can Roleplay who you want in YOUR Way Magic Melee Range Mixed everything. And the Big Modding Community Makes this a Really Masterpiece of an RPG. The Best of the best!!

Mar 4, 2020Skyrim. Fin de la reseña.
...
Muy buen RPG y extremadamente largo. Si bien hoy en día ya se siente anticuado, especialmente en el combate, sigue siendo un juego obligatorio para todo gamer. Marcó época y se nota.
Lo bueno de un rpg de este tipo en switch es que te deja aprovechar cualquier rato libre para avanzar poco a poco en un juego tan masivo como este. -
Feb 4, 2020The success and longevity of the game are in most part because of the countless mods that can enhance your experience and bring something new each time you replay the game. Skyrim was and remains one of the best RP games of all times

Jan 2, 2020bought it recently and loved, this is the third time I am playing again, the port is very solid far superior to the old gen, and near the last-gen port, a lot of bugs are gone, few remaining and nothing serious most of the time just reload a recent save and it's gone, Gameplay remaining the same a lot of quest and exploration .so for me it's a 9

Dec 10, 2019Skyrim on Switch is a very good adaption. Buy it you won't regret it. Especially when it has discount. I just with the fighting could be made better.

Nov 11, 201915 years of portable gaming, this was what we've been dreaming of. Spent hours just staring into snowy night forests and mountains and fighting feels like childhood fantasy. I would give just 9/10 if big consoles would run this with 60 fps, but they don't. Just this one game is a reason to go with Switch.
-
Sep 4, 2019En su momento lo pase en PS3 y es uno total pasada, su ambientación, su historia, su jugabilidad, etc. Lo compro ahora para volver a memorar esa hermosa historia y ya que viene con todos los DLC que no pude comprar en PS3.

Jun 6, 2019This is a great game but sometimes doesn't run well on Switch. It's a Bethesda Studio game so it should be not surprising that it doesn't run the best on Switch. If you can if this game for a good price then I would recommend but at $60 I just don't recommend it.

Dec 15, 2018Prepárate para reírte y frustrarte con los bugs!
Es un juego inmenso y divertido, además te puede dar cientos de horas, ¿Qué más se le puede pedir?
Una de las pocas pegas que le veo es que sigue teniendo muchos bugs, y si bien la mayoría no van más allá de cosas visuales, algunos te pueden obligar a cargar la partida en un punto anterior (en 120 horas de juego me pasó en 2 ocasiones) -
Dec 10, 2018What should I say about his game? It's just a amazing, a totally must have! I felt like playing a real tabletop RPG, as it has the most realistic roleplay I've ever seen in a e-game. TONS of quests are waiting for you, wherever you are, Dovahkiin!

CD-ActionFeb 8, 2018Anyone who dreamed of exploring Skyrim on the go or during prolonged toilet sessions, will instantly forgive a slight downgrade needed to ensure fluidity (the game almost always runs at 30 fps). Apart from some visual trade-offs and a bit of exclusive Nintendo content (e.g. Link’s outfit) it’s the same game you know and possibly love. [01/2018, p.50]
