The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Collector’s Edition Revealed

Bethesda’s rev­elead the Collector’s Edition for upcom­ing role-playing game, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

About every big game this hol­i­day sea­son is get­ting some form of Collector’s edi­tion. Batman: Arkham City, Gears of War 3, Resistance 3, Battlefield 3, and pretty much everything else. Not so sur­pris­ing is the fact that Skyrim will be join­ing them.

The next entry in the Elder Scrolls fran­chise will include these three snazzy items:

  • Alduin Statue - Created in con­junc­tion with the IP Factory, this collector’s only statue stands 12″ tall and is made of high qual­ity PVC. Modeled from actual in-game 3D digital files, it show­cases Alduin, the World Eater. He stands perched atop one the game’s many dragon walls that teach the player the lethal lan­guage of dragons.
  • The Art of Skyrim’ Official Art Book - Featuring over 200 pages of strik­ing, full-color illus­tra­tions, sketches and mod­els, this stun­ning 9 3/8″ x 12 1/8″ cof­fee table book show­cases the char­ac­ters, creatures, envir­on­ments, and weaponry of Skyrim. With a fore­word by game dir­ector Todd Howard and com­ment­ary from Bethesda Game Studios artists, read­ers will be guided through the game’s iconic visual style.
  • The Making of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim’ DVD - This doc­u­ment­ary DVD con­tains exclus­ive, behind-the-scenes foot­age, includ­ing inter­views with the Bethesda Game Studios team as they take you from concept to cre­ation and provide insights into the story, game­play, set­ting, leg­acy of the Elder Scrolls fran­chise, and much more.

What isn’t per­haps so snazzy is the price tag, with the edi­tion retail­ing at $149.99.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will launch on November 11 in North America on PS3, 360 and PC.
