But like all things media related it's not uncommon for a third party to create a little bit of controversy for the hype of a new release. It's not to say we won't ever see Skyrim on Nintendo Switch, it just means for now, news regarding Skyrim's specific release has not yet been officially confirmed.

Skyrim: Special Edition launches for Xbox One, PS4, and PC on October 28. As for Nintendo, we will have to wait and see what the future has in store.
