Skyrim Now Has an Official Tarot Card Deck
It’s become a running joke that Bethesda has and will likely continue releasing The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim on every platform under the sun. Initially developed for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360, it’s since been ported to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox, Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and even the Amazon Alexa. The ever-popular action RPG has even received an official board game adaptation.
Of course, ports and adaptions are one thing, but the latest bit of Skyrim merch takes things in an unexpected direction. Fans with a thing for stylized artwork and supernatural party tricks can now purchase an officially licensed Skyrim Tarot Card deck from Amazon, Walmart, and other online retailers.
The Skyrim Tarot Deck was created by artist Erika Hollice and game designer Tori Schafer, the latter of whom worked on The Elder Scrolls: Online and the indie battle royale game Spellbreak. It consists of 78 cards bearing custom, never-before-seen artwork inspired by the game. It also comes with a 128-page booklet describing the meaning of each card and instructions for Tarot readers of all skill levels. Fans who hurry can also buy the limited-edition version from Insight Editions, which includes seven exclusive cards featuring different art and a gold foil treatment. The Special Edition of the Skyrim Tarot Card Deck also comes with an alternate red, blue, and black box design.
