If you want to see your unarmored horse ditch you to take on a series of archers you can't quite reach with the tiny dagger - but in more detail than ever before - a sale on Skyrim: Legendary Edition is a good enabler.
Currently on sale for under $13, sapping up a discount Steam key through a reseller is currently the cheapest way to gain access to the remastered world of Skyrim without just buying it outright.
That's because any owner of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and all its DLC - whether through the Game of the Year edition or not - gains instant access to the polished version announced at Bethesda's E3 presentation earlier this year.
Obtainable through key reseller 'CDKeys', £10 now not only grants you access to the original game and it's many DLC expansion packs, but immediate access to the 'Special Edition' remastering featured reworked shaders, god rays and basically most of the bigger visual tweaks already available to PC players through the modding community - albeit now in a more official form.
Pre-loading for Skyrim: Special Edition is already underway. If you're not sure the visual upgrades are really enough for you to play through the expansive RPG again, DigitalFoundry created a handy comparison video a few months ago shown below.
And remember, the new version is still as susceptible to modding as the old one. There's plenty of those on our own mod database.
