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.
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.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
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.

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.

Game is butt, garrett sucks it off so jew
I've played this since the year it released and probably bought it at least 4 times (lol, unfortunately true), and despite having done truly everything in it, and after having played all the raved about mods to heck and back, I still love Skyrim. It just captured something for me in my youth that I can still revisit in my 30s somehow that I can't really explain. It helped me cope with college stress and now it helps with work stress, but also something deeper than that. For all its very real shortcomings, characters left impressions on me that have lasted years and so has the lore of the elder scrolls in general

Would've been still one of the great games if they didn't break my mods by their ass updates that contributes to nothing
For a game that is now at least 10 years old, it's natural that for those of us who still plays it from time to time would do so with extensive modlists. What has now frustrated me enough into not wanting to touch this any time soon is the fact that for some annoying reason they're still pushing updates to this after 10 years without meaningful enough change to actually justify people's entire mod libraries breaking beyond repair. This is absolutely absurd and they just need to leave the game alone and focus on ES6
Skyrim is the only game where it can be finished for years, have a complete modding community built apon the current version, and some how the devs that release an entirely pointless update that breaks every mod and makes the game crash if you dare to open the map 4 times
闲着没事你更你妈呢,还好回退版本了,存档和mod差点全废了我阐述你的梦
These guys at Bethesda will do anything but work on the next skyrim. stop updating a decades old game ffs
Still goated
unplayable without mods. tried playing vanilla and just couldnt do it. after 3 painstaking hours following a guide and installing all the recommended mods i was pleasantly surprised at how smoothly it ran and how beautiful it looked. was quietly enjoying my first playthrough in over ten years until today when i tried launching it and saw bethesda decided to "update" it and broke all the mods i had installed. ♥♥♥♥ you bethesda. your name is carried by your older titles and the fans who actually care enough to fix your broken ass games. TES VI will be a disaster. starfield was a joke.
this is the last time i let Bethesda F me
