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.
