The Skyrim Special Edition comes with new visual effects, including god-rays, new snow shaders, and more. Additionally, the Special Edition's console version will support PC mods.

This is not uncharted territory for a Bethesda game, as Fallout 4 PC mods now work on Xbox One and are coming to PlayStation 4 later this month.

Skyrim's Special Edition launches on October 28 for all platforms. If you're playing on PC, there is a chance you could get a free version of the Special Edition.
