While
The Elder Scrolls VI is still years away at this point, Bethesda announced the release of a new
Elder Scrolls game,
Blades, at E3 2018. The game's plot is relatively simple, as the player controls a member of the
Blades, an exiled group of the empire's top agents, who upon arriving home realizes it has been ruined. The game will be a free-to-play title, just like the critically acclaimed
Fallout Shelter.
Blades was supposed to release this fall, but Bethesda yesterday officially announced that
The Elder Scrolls: Blades will release in Early 2019 for iOS and Android devices. Considering that Bethesda' latest offering,
Fallout 76, turned out to be a big, dated, and what's worse, rushed, mess, it's good to hear that Bethesda will use that extra time to further polish the upcoming mobile title.
The game was designed specifically for mobile devices and features touch-screen combat that involves tapping, swiping, or using virtual dual-stick controls. It's not the only
Elder Scrolls title Bethesda is currently working on, as
The Elder Scrolls VI was officially announced at the same E3, but it won't be released anytime soon, as finishing mysterious
Starfield is Bethesda's top priority at the moment.
From Bethesda Game Studios, the award winning creators of Skyrim, comes The Elder Scrolls: Blades — a massive first person role-playing game created for mobile.
The Elder Scrolls: Blades will release in Early 2019 for iOS and Android devices.
