It’s Official: Bethesda Figured Out Yet Another Way to Re-Release Skyrim

Originally, Skyrim came out on PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. In 2016, the Special Edition arrived on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, featuring improvements and all previously released downloadable content. The game continued to expand to new platforms, appearing on Nintendo Switch and in virtual reality in 2017. Amazingly, a version even launched for Amazon Alexa in 2018. More recently, the Anniversary Edition was released for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2021, and a digital-only edition came to Nintendo Switch last year.

The Best Video Games For Nervous Flyers

For many, video games aren’t just a way to pass the time – they’re a real escape, which is especially helpful in stressful situations like a long flight. People have been using games to distract themselves while traveling ever since the first portable consoles were released. I remember being a kid on road trips, struggling to play Pokémon Crystal on my Game Boy Color in the dark, using the headlights and streetlights to see the screen, or else being incredibly bored. Nintendo eventually added backlights to their handhelds, which made nighttime gaming much easier. Now, modern handheld consoles offer hours of entertainment and can help anxious travelers relax and find some comfort.
