Back in March, PC players received the Skyrim 1.5 update. And now, the rest of us can experience the new kill cameras and animations.

Over on the Bethesda blog, they tell us that 1.5 is officially available on Xbox LIVE. As of Thursday morning, it’s not quite ready to go on PS3 – but they say that it should be available later in the day.

The Skyrim 1.5 update fixes over two dozen bugs and adds a few fun new features. The most important is probably the addition of some new kill cams and animations. For the first time, your kills with your bow and your magic will often prompt the awesome slow-mo kill cameras that until now, only melee weapon kills have enjoyed. And if anyone is sick and tired of the melee kill animations, you’re getting some more of those as well. Along with those two new features, your Smithing skill increases now factor in the value of the items you create.

Check out the new kill cams below (you know, if you’re at work and can’t yet download the update and see them live):

Bethesda also announced a fun little factoid: As of right now, the average Skyrim play time is 85 hours and almost a third of those players have played the game over 100 hours.

Here’s a full rundown of everything inside 1.5:
