A true, full-length open-world game for VR has arrived from award-winning developers, Bethesda Game Studios. Skyrim VR reimagines the complete epic fantasy masterpiece with an unparalleled sense of scale, depth, and immersion. From battling ancient dragons to exploring rugged mountains and more, Skyrim VR brings to life a complete open world for you to experience any way you choose. Skyrim VR includes the critically-acclaimed core game and official add-ons – Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn.
Dragons, long lost to the passages of the Elder Scrolls, have returned to Tamriel and the future of the Empire hangs in the balance. As Dragonborn, the prophesied hero born with the power of The Voice, you are the only one who can stand amongst them.

Longtime Skyrim player, trying the VR version for the first time.
1. Movement takes a lot of getting used to; you either teleport from place to place (better for motion sickness), or move as in game, but controlled by VR controller stick so you can physically stand still and watch the (in-game) world rush by (BAD for motion sickness, I only lasted a few seconds in this mode).
2. I found the immersion of the environment to be REALLY good, even with vanilla Skyrim (no mods). Visual clarity and quality is going to be dependent on your GPU and headset, but I am running a 3070TI with an Occulus Quest 1 headset and SteamVR, and it was still very good. Newer headsets will be brighter/sharper, but I wouldn't go much lower for GPU if you want a smooth and pretty experience, so keep that in mind.
3. Having to relearn how to play the game with a new interface is a bit frustrating.
4. If you can get this on sale, it's definitely worth picking up. I can't believe I've paid for Skyrim 4 times.
Whole new experience in familiar place
With enough GPU and CPU and mods, this is the prettiest VR experience POSSIBLE.
Vr controls are poorly implemented, if you really want to play the game without ending up dizzy, mod it. Also the combat system is far from perfect, it really looks like someone forced vr support in that game, this lacks refinement.
the most immersive vr game I've ever played and I haven't even installed mods for it yet the controls are a little clunky but you'll get used to them its amazing with its open world and i know the game is over 10 years old just its a different experience playing it in vr
