Skyrim‘s latest update, 1.7, is now available on Steam and the update will automatically be run once players open up the game. For those of you playing Skyrim on consoles, Bethesda has stated that it’s planning to “submit the update to console manufacturers this week.”
The update, as seen on Bethesda’s blog, includes the following bug fixes:
- General memory and stability optimizations
- Fixed crash related to new water shaders
- Fixed rare crash related to dragon landings
- Fixed logic error with loading screens from add-ons (Xbox 360)
- Using vampiric grip and swimming no longer prevents swimming animation from playing afterwards
- Improved recognition with Kinect voice commands (Xbox 360)
- Kinect-enabled dragon language shouts for French, German, Italian and Spanish work properly (Xbox 360)
- Fixed issue with Dawnguard Kinect-enabled dragon shouts for French, German, Italian and Spanish (Xbox 360)
As for the DLC pack Dawnguard, no information has been released just yet about when it will come to other systems. Microsoft struck a deal with Bethesda to allow Xbox 360 users exclusive access to the DLC for 30 days but now that the 30-day period is up, gamers on the PC and PS3 are waiting for some news. Pete Hines of Bethesda tweeted that more information should be out sometime this week.
