Bethesda’s iOS game "The Elder Scrolls: Blades" has begun rolling out in early access this week, after facing numerous delays in 2018 (via TouchArcade). The game was first announced at E3 2018, and then showcased by Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard at Apple’s "Gather Round" iPhone XS event in September 2018.



As of now, the game is in early access and Bethesda is sending out invites in waves. If you’re interested, you can create a Bethesda account to sign up for early access on the company’s website, and more information about the program can be found on the game’s FAQ page.

Apple used the mobile game as a way to showcase the A12 Bionic chip on the newest generation of iPhone devices. Howard said that Blades is a massive, first person role-playing game that is full of quests for players to complete and a full world to explore.



In the game, you play as a member of the Blades, a group of the Empire’s top agents who are forced into exile, forcing you to return to your hometown in an effort to help rebuild it. The game’s App Store page highlights features like dungeon questing, city customization, player-versus-player arena battles, character and gear editing, and more.

The Elder Scrolls: Blades is available to download from the iOS App Store for free [Direct Link]. As with most free-to-play games, there are in-app purchases of up to $99.99.
