New screenshots for Bethesda’s behemoth The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim have released for viewing consumption. According to VG247, Skyrim was first conceived in 2006 and is set 200 years after Oblivion where a civil war has broken among the Nords following the assassination of Skyrim’s king. With basically all hell breaking loose, the Nordic civil war fortells the final chain of events leading to the return of the Nordic god of destruction, Alduin, who returns in the form of a dragon.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim releases November 11, 2011 (same release day as Minecraft) for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.
