Bethesda Announces Elder Scrolls MMO

[YosemiteSam]

Long rumored and much anticipated, The Elder Scrolls Online is finally being unveiled in the June issue of Game Informer. In this month's cover story we journey across the entire land of Tamriel, from Elsweyr to Skyrim and everywhere in between.

Developed by the team at Zenimax Online Studios, The Elder Scrolls Online merges the unmatched exploration of rich worlds that the franchise is known for with the scale and social aspects of a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. Players will discover an entirely new chapter of Elder Scrolls history in this ambitious world, set a millennium before the events of Skyrim as the daedric prince Molag Bal tries to pull all of Tamriel into his demonic realm.

"It will be extremely rewarding finally to unveil what we have been developing the last several years," said game director and MMO veteran Matt Firor, whose previous work includes Mythic's well-received Dark Age of Camelot. "The entire team is committed to creating the best MMO ever made – and one that is worthy of The Elder Scrolls franchise."

DAOC was one of the best MMO's ever. If they can come close to the RVR aspect and better PvE, this would be over the top for them.

There is one problem though, that being so many MMO's in the market today. It's very hard to break in unless you bring an entirely different experience for the gamer. I haven't seen that yet w/ some of the news releases to be honest.


Good luck, Bethesda
