[Update] Bethesda says that patch 1.4 for PS3 is now available in European territories - grab it now Euro folk! [End of Update]
‘Skyrim Day’ on El33tonline continues, it seems, as Bethesda Softworks has just announced that the long-awaited title update 1.4 for Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is now available on Xbox LIVE.
Console owners looking forward to the next patch for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will be heartened by news from Bethesda Softworks’ Pete Hines, who recently revealed that title update 1.4 is expected to arrive soon.
From a Twitter posting:
We all love Portal 2. And we all love Skyrim too (see what I did there?). Apparently these games love each other as well because Bethesda and Valve have teamed up to create a mod for Skyrim that includes a little character from Portal 2.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim did not have any mod tools when it launched, yet the amount of mods that became available almost immediately was frightening. From new outfits to whole new areas and obviously multiple retexturing projects.
Bethesda has let PC players of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim know that the game’s long-awaited 1.4 patch is now available for download over Steam.
This is a big deal.
The latest title update for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is finally available following a staggered release across all platforms. What fixes and additions does patch 1.3 bring to Skyrim? Here are the patch notes:
Haven’t yet had a chance to try out the team-based first-person shooter from Splash Damage and Bethesda Softworks? Good news for you then, because Brink is available for free over Valve’s digital distribution service, Steam, this weekend!
Why would the developer/publisher pair provide such an offer? To celebrate the addition of new community tools!
As reported by users of Bethesda Softworks’ forums earlier today, a patch for the PlayStation 3 version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim became available in Europe today, while North American PS3 gamers will be able to download it shortly.
What about PC and Xbox 360 players? And what’s due to be fixed in the upcoming patch?
[Update] The news of a PS3 Skyrim title update has since been confirmed with patch notes, as well as an ETA for PC and Xbox 360 players - details over here. [End of Update]
It’s being reported by users on the official Bethesda Softworks forum that the long-awaited patch for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is now available for PlayStation 3 gamers.
While console gamers will have to wait until next week to enjoy a new title update for Bethesda Softwork’s epic action RPG, PC players are now able to grab the latest patch for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
By now, we all know that the world of Bethesda’s latest game is in need of some tender loving care in the form of a patch to address a number of issues players of the game have encountered in the mountains and towns of Skyrim.
Luckily, we also know that Bethesda has been working on such a patch and we may just see the fruits of the team’s labour as early as next week.
Bethesda Softworks has today announced that the studio’s just-released open-world fantasy-based action RPG, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, has enjoyed “an enthusiastic reception by gamers across the globe” and successfully shipped seven million units worldwide, with “[more] than 50% of launch units” sold in the first two days of availability.
Can we safely assume, then, that over 3.5 million units of Skyrim were sold in 48 hours?
If you’re one of the millions of gamers who just so happened to pick up The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim over the last week, you’ll be glad to know that developer Bethesda Softworks is hard at work on an all-format patch to address a number of issues that have cropped up.
Bethesda’s VP of PR and Marketing Pete Hines recently posted on Twitter:
Bethesda Softworks’ latest, enormous (massive, gigantic, colossal, gargantuan, mammoth) action RPG is out today around the world, across Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
We’re talking about The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and to celebrate the release of this monumental achievement in games, we’re going to take you on a journey with a collection of gameplay videos, recently released trailers and developer diaries - by the end of it, you’ll know as much about Skyrim as you’ll ever need to… before you get to play it, that is!
