If you just want the basic vanilla Skyrim experience, then you want Special Edition. For both games, you will almost certainly need what’s called USLEEP ( Legendary Edition, Special Edition), the unofficial, community-made mod full of patches and fixes.īut which version of Skyrim should you play? Well, it depends on how you want to play your game. You’ll find all the same bugs and glitches, as well as all your favourite exploits. Almost all the game play bugs are still there. Gameplay-wise, the two versions are identical. Special Edition is basically the 64bit version of Skyrim, boasting slightly improved visuals and more special effects and a better usage of your RAM. Legendary Edition is Skyrim and the three DLCs bundled together into one package, and is also what you have if you bought Skyrim and the DLCs separately. There’s Skyrim plus the three DLCs, Dragonborn, Dawnguard and the shitty house-building DLC no one cares about.
The base version of Skyrim alone, Skyrim Legendary Edition and Special Edition. Skyrim Legendary Edition and Skyrim Special Edition.
On PC however, there are two versions of Skyrim to choose from. It’s on the Switch, it’s on PS4 and XBox, it’s everywhere. There are so many versions of TESV: Skyrim available right now.
