Well, it’s a date that accounts for once-in-a-lifetime celebrations. And hardcore fans will not want to miss this one. Any guesses? 

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has contributed to top-tier RPG gaming charts for over a decade now. The open-world is hailed as one of the finest Bethesda creations to date.

So, the fans were in no mood to miss out on celebrating a unique and special day for the RPG. 

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim turns 11.11.11

The twelve-year anniversary of the Skyrim launch is just around the corner. And no, the fans haven’t started celebrating early. However, October 22 has something to do with the countdown. Bethesda’s RPG turns 11 years, 11 months, and 11 days old today. A Reddit user shared this wonderful fact on their handle and wrote, “Today Skyrim’s age is exactly the same as its release date! I thought that was kind of special.”

A hard fact to digest. Unfortunately, it is the truth. If it helps, investing your time in creations like Elder Scrolls V would count as worthy any day.
