Skyrim fits on one Xbox 360 disc

No disc swapping for Elder Scrolls V.

Bethesda has managed to squeeze forthcoming action RPG colossus The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim onto a single Xbox 360 disc.

Art director Matt Carofano confirmed the news to RipTen, though didn't offer any further detail on install sizes.

For some context, L.A. Noire spanned three separate Xbox 360 discs when it launched earlier this year.

For those concerned that Elder Scrolls V is anything less than enormous, give Eurogamer's recent Skyrim preview a quick read.
