For those who may not know what going gold means, it’s basically when development on a game has been completed ahead of schedule and the discs are ready for mass production.
Skyrim Special Edition isn’t the first game to go gold recently either, as both Gears Of War 4 and Titanfall 2 have also gone gold during the previous month of September.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Special Edition is set for release on 28th October, 2016, for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and the PC. You can also check out some screenshots of the game in native 4K on the PlayStation Pro here.
