Do I need to play Oblivion before Skyrim?
Do I need to play Oblivion before Skyrim? The short answer is no, you don’t have to play Elder Scrolls IV before diving right into Elder Scrolls V. Sure, there’s some lore from the previous games that crosses over, but Skyrim takes place in an entirely different part of Tamriel.
