The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim PC Patch 1.3 Released, Xbox 360/PS3 Submitted

Patch 1.2 broke a few things, so it’s good that Bethesda shows a quick turnaround on patch 1.3, which fixes the biggest of those problems (dragon animations and broken resistances). It  is now up on Steam and has been submitted to Sony and Microsoft for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Update 1.3 for Skyrim is now available on Steam and is being submitted to Sony and Microsoft. As soon as we have more information on the update hitting PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, we’ll let everyone know. Below are the release notes for the update:

Additionally, community manager Matt Grandstaff has posted some tips for PS3 gamers (though they may also be useful to Windows and Xbox 360 gamers) in regards to the savegame issues. They’re fairly standard tips but you might find something useful in there, worth giving a shot.
