Bethseda has announced new details about the newly revealed The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The official company Twitter account made mention that the game will not use the same engine that powered its earlier franchises, Fallout 3 and The Elder Scolls IV: Oblivion.
The teaser trailer made mention of an evil power that has recently resurfaced after being considered a forgotten legend. The trailer voiced a trembling concern towards the incoming menace, “They’re already here. The Elder Scrolls told of their return. Their defeat was merely a delay. From the time after Oblivion opened, when the sons of Skyrim would spill their own blood.”
Details for the game are expected soon with a cover story in the February issue of Game Informer.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will release November 11, 2011 for PC, Xbox 360, and PS3.
