The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim vs Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace

Skyrim is Bethesda’s landmark open-world RPG set in a Nordic fantasy province, known for its freeform exploration, dragon-shouting Dragonborn, and an enormous modding community that keeps it alive over a decade later.

Step into the galaxy far, far away with the 1999 PC release of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace.
