The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim features a massive open world full of secrets for dedicated explorers to discover. With the game having been out since 2011, it's safe to say that many diehards already know where to go to find the best secrets, but those who are new to Skyrim may not know where to look. One Reddit user has decided to help those newer Skyrim players out by showing them where to find a secret chest in Dawnstar.
Reddit user Reasonable-Device-66 has uploaded a video showing Skyrim players exactly where they need to go to find the secret chest in Dawnstar. This chest is full of valuable loot, and so anyone that needs to get a ton of items at once should definitely make the trip. To start, Skyrim players should fast-travel to Dawnstar, and then head to the entrance of the Iron-Breaker Mine.
Instead of going in the Iron-Breaker Mine, Skyrim players should check just to the left of the mine's entrance. There are some rocks here near the wall, and if players look at the snowy ground between the rocks and the wall, they will see a prompt to search a chest. Inside the chest is a ton of loot that Skyrim players can freely grab for themselves, which will definitely help on their adventures.
As previously stated, many diehard Skyrim players likely already know about this secret Dawnstar chest, but newcomers may have no idea of its existence. And even though Skyrim is nearing its 10th anniversary, there are definitely still people who are discovering the game for the first time. There are also those who are revisiting Skyrim and may have forgotten about the secret Dawnstar chest, and so there are many who may find Reasonble-Device-66's video helpful.
While Skyrim's secret Dawnstar chest isn't a new discovery, there are those who have found "new" discoveries in the game in recent years. For example, one Skyrim player recently discovered the Archwind Point dungeon despite having played it regularly for seven years.
Skyrim's sheer depth has kept players enthralled for a decade at this point, but it's safe to say many fans of the franchise are growing anxious for a new adventure. The Elder Scrolls 6 release date is still years away, so it seems fans will have to make due with Skyrim, Oblivion, and Morrowind while they wait for more information on the next entry in the long-running series.
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is out now for PC, PS3, PS4, Switch, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.
