Bethesda Announces Open Beta For The Elder Scrolls Legends
As part of its Quakecon 2016, Bethesda announced that it's rolling out an open beta for Elder Scrolls: Legends, the free-to-play card game based on the long-running RPG series.
This is Bethesda's second foray into the free-to-play market, the first being Fallout Shelter. It also shares a few elements with Blizzard's Hearthstone, albeit with a few tweaks (such as a two-lane setup). Interested players can download the beta through the Bethesda.net launcher and read up on basic and advanced strategies for the game via the official site. Check out our Test Chamber featuring Dan Tack, Ben Reeves, and Wade Wojcik below.
The Elder Scrolls: Legends is anticipated to launch for iOS and PC later this year.
Our Take
I'm still a little wary of investing in a card game after spending hundreds of dollars on one years ago, but Dan was positive on the game during our Test Chamber, so I might check it out. Trying it for free couldn't hurt, right?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
