Microsoft and Mojang have teamed up to announce their next Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition “Mash-Up.” Following on the heels of September’s “Mass Effect Edition,” Minecraft players can now look forward to Fus Ro Dahing their way through Skyrim with the “Skyrim Edition” add-on.

The Skyrim Pack will appropriate many elements from Bethesda’s ultra-popular Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim when its released “soon.” The pack will include a Skyrim-themed texture set, 40 character skins, 20 selections from Skyrim’s score, and a pre-made world that recreates Whiterun, Riverwood, and Bleak Falls Barrow in Minecraft.

If you’re in attendance at this weekend’s Minecon in Orlando, you’ll get a chance to play Minecraft: Skyrim Edition for yourself. If not, head over to the Bethesda Blog for more details on the mash-up’s content and a look at the first screenshots.
