Elder Scrolls Online Delayed On Consoles


By Jake Doolin

Players wanting to play the Elder Scrolls: Online on their shiny new consoles are going to have to wait a few more months. In a blog post on their official site, Bethesda announced plans to move the PS4 and Xbox One version of the game back "about six months" from there originally planned June release. One bit of good news in all this is the offer Bethesda is now offering users who had planned on buying the console versions.

 "Anyone who purchases and plays the PC/Mac version of The Elder Scrolls Online by the end of June will have the opportunity to transfer their character(s) to either console version when they are released. The offer will allow you to begin playing immediately on the PC/Mac, and then add the PS4 or Xbox One version and transfer the character(s) you have created and developed. And, you don’t have to pay full price for the game twice. For $20, eligible PC and Mac players will have the option to add a full, digital version of ESO on either the PS4 or the Xbox One with your character transfer(s), and another 30 days of included game time. " 

The post ends with Bethesda promising to get the game released as soon as possible. Let's just hope this push to get the game out doesn't mean we are forced to contend with more game breaking bugs and glitches

The Elder Scrolls: Online is out now for PC and Mac.
