Bethesda hat den Beta-Test zum neuen Patch des Rollenspiel-Epos The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim beendet. Ab sofort steht der neue Patch 1.5 für Xbox, Playstation 3 und den PC zur Verfügung. Neben neuen Performance-Verbesserungen und Bugfixes kamen auch neue Features hinzu. So gibt es für Fernkämpfer und Magier nun eine Killcam, die den Tod eines Gegners zeigt. Für Nahkämpfer kamen zusätzliche Hinrichtungs-Animationen hinzu. Bethesda arbeitet also stetig an Verbesserungen zum Rollenspie-Hit.
