Bethesda Software wasn’t shy of showing of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim during E3 2011. Check out the gameplay video below that is more than 6:57 minutes long and some new screenshots.

Plotwise, Skyrim is set two hundred years after the events of Oblivion, in the land of Skyrim. The province has erupted into civil war after the assassination of its king. Concurrently, the god Alduin, who takes the form of a massive dragon, has arisen to destroy the world.

The player character is one of the last living Dovahkiin (Dragonborn), and must fend off Alduin and save Skyrim from destruction. Epic adventure or what?

Okay, i think i’ve talked enough, let’s get to the good stuff.

I wasn’t a fan of Oblivion but boy does Skyrim look great. The game is scheduled to be released on November 11 2011 for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC.
