The Elder Scrolls: Blades is an interesting case study. Here is a mobile spin-off of a console/PC franchise that is now making its way back to consoles via the Switch. With a "real" Elder Scrolls sequel still years away, and The E...

For the past two years, us Elder Scrolls fans have been clinging to a 36-second teaser trailer for the next mainline entry: Elder Scrolls VI. Bethesda has been pretty mum on the whole project since then, but now we have a better idea o...

It was a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, but Elder Scrolls: Blades was finally given some semblance of a release window for Switch during the surprise Nintendo Direct Mini that I'm still reeling from. Released in Early Access on mobil...

In a post on its official Reddit, Bethesda has announced that all future content and development plans for The Elder Scrolls: Legends have been put "on hold for the foreseeable future", which is being translated by many as the death knell f...

The Elder Scrolls: Blades wasn't exactly the great free-to-play experience I was hoping it would be when I tested out the game in early access back in April. It had potential with a beautiful world and a fluid combat system. But t...

At Bethesda's E3 event, the presenters took some time to brag on the company's mobile game offerings. Its hit Fallout Shelter has reached over 150 million downloads. The Elder Scrolls: Legends might not have those numbers yet, but it does ...

25 years ago Bethesda launched The Elder Scrolls: Arena, which started a fantasy world that's continued to dominate the conversation of video game high fantasy. But it wasn't until 2002's Morrowind that the publisher really struck it big, e...

For those of you who don't know I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Over the years I've developed a lot of personal recipes, including a mean garlic butter seared salmon with Dijon mayonnaise that I like to make for my wife. I'm also in t...

You'd have to be terribly boring or adverse to trying new things to have never played a game you didn't enjoy. That’s just the way things are, and it’s not always the game’s fault. Sometimes the situation you’re in s...
