Story
★★★★★
"Masterful"
An open world of dizzying breadth, from snowy tundras to misty forests: the natural light and the coherence of the landscapes compose a total immersion. The richness of the panoramas and the sense of detail give a rare presence. This art direction, vast and credible, redefines the scale of the open-world RPG.
Signed by Jeremy Soule, the music wraps the open world in a broad, contemplative orchestra, from the peaceful exploration theme to the epic "Dragonborn" choir. Each horizon breathes freedom and wonder, carrying the adventure without ever tiring. This symphonic breadth, timeless, remains a benchmark of the genre.
Marked by destiny as the Dragonborn, a traveller faces the return of creatures thought long gone. More than a plot, it is a whole world that opens up, peopled with tales the player writes for themselves through their choices. This near-infinite narrative freedom turned the adventure into a lasting cultural phenomenon.
Gameplay

"Pleasant"
Addictiveness
"Obsessive"
Climbing a mountain on the strength of a single marker, then chaining a crypt, a dragon and a guild secret feeds a loop of exploration where the next goal is always born of the last. Shaping your hero and scooping up a thousand treasures reward each detour. Its bugs and repetitions show, but the immensity of the world keeps a rare power to absorb.

"Massive"
The base game and the three expansions, Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn, brought together open extra lands, home-building and new quest lines atop an already colossal world. Exploring Solstheim, hunting vampires and raising your homestead carries well past the main path. This legendary edition packs the most complete Skyrim experience there is.
The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Legendary Edition, gathering one of its generation's most famous open-world RPGs and all its expansions into the definitive version of the game on the console. Still common, its desirability rests on this status as the complete package to favor and the title's immense aura rather than scarcity. The reference pick for the best Skyrim on PS3, accessible boxed.
Is Elder Scrolls V, The - Skyrim - Legendary Edition still worth playing in 2026?
The Legendary Edition gathers Skyrim and its three major expansions, Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn, hundreds of extra hours of exceptional content. Dawnguard with its vampire plot, Dragonborn with its return to Solstheim on the trail of the first Dragonborn, considerably enrich an already colossal game. It is by far the best way to experience Skyrim on PS3, in its most complete form. The absolute freedom, the immersion and the scope of the Nordic world remain intact. To discover or revisit this RPG monument without missing anything, this version stands as the obvious choice.
