Free Skyrim Map App 'Dragon Shout' is Coming Soon, News from GamePro

Dragon Shout looks like it might be the best Skyrim companion for anyone with an iPhone or an iPad.

Set to hit Apple's App Store sometime in the next two weeks is a new and ever-so-useful Skyrim companion called Dragon Shout. The app, available for both iPhone and iPad, features a dynamic, hand-drawn map that lets you drop markers and create journal entries for your battles, quests, items, and in the not-so-distant future, social networking purposes.

According to the Dragon Shout website [1] , the app is not affiliated with or endorsed by the developers of Skyrim or Bethesda Game Studios, which is likely why the clever tool is completely free. What's more, future updates will allow for Dragon Shout members to share map markers and journal entries, and is set to expand to the Android market to boot.

Touch Arcade got the double scoop details directly from the source, and here's what is set to be included in the app's first release, which has just been submitted to Apple:

"The first version of the app contains an interactive map where you can drop annotated markers / journal entries down," the developer told us. "For example, yesterday I played Skyrim and left a bunch of dragon scales and bones on the side of a mountain because they were too heavy.

I will come back and get them some other time so I marked it on the map so I know where it's at in the future. Another example is I'm always looking for the right ingredients for potions, so when I come across an important ingredient, I mark it on the map so I know where to get it next time."

An exact release date has yet to be set, but according to the Touch Arcade forums [2] , Dragon Shout will be out 2-3 weeks from November 23.
