Confirming widespread rumors, Bethesda has announced a remastered version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. As was suggested previously, Skyrim will launch this fall for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

A trailer for the game, suffixed "Special Edition", was also shown during the event. It showcased the new game's visual improvements, which appear to be dramatic.

The Skyrim Special Edition comes with new visual effects, including god-rays, new snow shaders, and more. Additionally, the Special Edition's console version will support PC mods.

This is not uncharted territory for a Bethesda game, as Fallout 4 PC mods now work on Xbox One and are coming to PlayStation 4 later this month.

Skyrim's Special Edition launches on October 28 for all platforms. If you're playing on PC, there is a chance you could get a free version of the Special Edition.

If you own #Skyrim and all its add-ons or own Legendary Edition on Steam, you'll get a free upgrade to Skyrim Special Edition on Oct 28 #BE3 — BethesdaGameStudios (@BethesdaStudios) June 13, 2016
