Skyrim Patch 1.7 Arrives on Steam

Skyrim Patch 1.7 is now available for PC users through Steam.

“

For those on consoles, the current plan is to submit the update to console manufacturers this week.

In a post on its official blog, Bethesda confirmed the patch is no longer in beta and said that console manufacturers would get the update this week.

The entry reads, "Skyrim’s 1.7 title update is now out of beta and available to all Steam users. Simply load up Skyrim on Steam and you’ll get the update. For those on consoles, the current plan is to submit the update to console manufacturers this week. As soon as it’s available, we’ll let you know."

This isn't the only Skyrim news we're expecting this week, with Bethesda's Pete Hines also having suggested that we'll find out when, if at all, PC and PS3 players will get their hands on the Dawnguard expansion DLC.

We previously covered what awaits players in Patch 1.7, with PS3 players finally getting Patch 1.6's mounted combat when it arrives.
