Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim to get Kinect support

Bethesda’s smash hit RPG The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is to introduce Kinect compatibility on Xbox 360 later this month.

The update will be released via Xbox Live before the end of the month.

Once installed it will introduce Voice Commands into the game. These can be used to access function such as Dragon Shouts, follower commands and menu navigation – including quick saves and loads.

A number of new functions will be added, too, to improve the map and inventory management.
