The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition Reviews
Comprised of dozens of Creation Club additions and a petty upgrade for the PS5 version, Skyrim's anniversary edition is good, but not enough to justify such an expensive upgrade. Most of the new content are cosmetic and don't add as much to the experience. It is only recommended for the most enthusiastic fans. For everybody else, it is advisable to wait for a sale.

The technical issues do detract from the experience somewhat, especially when considering that many of the bugs are more than a decade old at this point, but they are not enough to keep Skyrim: Anniversary Edition from being the definitive way to experience the classic title.
The total package can rightly be called impressive. The sheer amount of content can be overwhelming for those who have yet to get started on Skyrim.

Skyrim Anniversary Edition is a pricey update to a legendary yet aging classic game. For those who already know it by heart, the free update will offer enough reasons to come back.

Our beloved Skyrim certainly deserved better with the launch of the Anniversary Edition, the new re-release got some tech issues and close to no graphical improvement and sadly missed the change to update the game engine and make the project a full-fleshed remake, there's plenty of new content no doubt but unless you are highly interested in Creation Club content and don't mind it's not voice acted and feels like free mods, you may want to skip this one and hope for better treatment next time

Skyrim: Anniversary Edition is full of lackluster additions to a fantastic game. Some new areas are blocked off, quests feel like busy work, and the new items aren't all that useful. The best parts are already in a free update, so stick with that.
What was once the pinnacle of its genre has become a bit of a joke as it releases again and again and again. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition adds very little that can’t be found in the 2016 Special Edition or is already free with Creation Club content. There is enjoyment to be had out of playing the game in the new survival mode and I still adore the base game. However, Skyrim just isn’t as strong when held up to modern standards, and it is the fault of Bethesda that this tired horse is now running a race with so many others that are leagues faster.
