Skyrim Will No Longer Have a Level Cap

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim 1.9 title update is now in beta testing on Steam and Bethesda hopes to have the game update live on consoles later this month.

The update for Skyrim adds a new Legendary difficulty setting to the game as well as the ability to turn skills into "Legendary" skills when players reach 100. This process resets the skills current level to 15 and allow gamers to level up the skill again, thus getting as many perk points as they desire from re-leveling Legendary Skills and giving the game the possibility of an endless level cap.

In addition to the two new game features, the upcoming game update for “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” also fixes a huge amount of bugs within the game concerning memory issues and quest bugs. Check out the full list below.
