Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 71.71/day in the week to Jul 30 → 92.43/day in the week after.
Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Genres
Add-ons
Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; PlayStation, Xbox, GOG, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

this is the only game I have played for the past 6 months...
Most transformative game in my life and it's the game that got me my boyfriend. Genuinely 10/10 and it's bethesda's last masterpiece

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 23: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

i dont really get the praise around this game. it feels really slow and clunky and the 2 hours ive played this for were a slog. maybe ill try out the modding scene one day but im a bit discouraged from doing so because of things ive seen regarding updates breaking countless mods. the ost is pretty nice though
This truly is the hell game of all time. Does this game have hundreds of bugs and issues yes absolutly. Will I ever stop playing it? Probably not.
Ce jeu devait être três bon, mais je perds tout mon équipement et à ma magie à chaque début d'affrontement... Dommage, l'exploration me plaît bien mais si c'est pour tomber sur un loup et se retrouver à poil pour se faire two shots...
LOVE THIS GAME but its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to play, modding this ♥♥♥♥ is crazy hard and sometimes it just outright refuses to use keyboard and mouse, love this game, hate Bethesda
simplesmente uma obra prima ja zerei 2 vezes, mas esquecer da historia principal e muito comum, simplesmente tem muito conteudo para explorar e se divertir sem nem mesmo derrotar o alduin simplesmente peak
I'm very frustrated that my favorite comfort game gets rendered unplayable every so often despite it being a fifteen year old game. Please leave it alone. I do not recommend any one play this game until the updates stop or Steam allows you to go back to previous version.
Dumbest, stupidest game ever. I tried it because of the hype. Literally kill the whiterun dragon and need to go into whiterun to finish the mission. Yet they are all attacking me so the mission is basically not possible to complete? Literally the stupidest game ive probably ever played. Dont understand why people think this game is good. Its stupid and pointless. Wish i could get my money but more importantly my time playing it back
