June is set to be a sad month for Bethesda fans, as it marks the final few weeks of The Elder Scrolls: Blades' life. Back at the end of March, Bethesda confirmed that The Elder Scrolls: Blades would be shut down on June 30, with online access to the game being pulled completely. The game has already been delisted from storefronts, but will continue to be playable until the June 30 shutdown date.
For nearly six years, The Elder Scrolls: Blades has offered fans of Bethesda's fantasy RPG series a mobile alternative to the core games. The Elder Scrolls: Blades was released in 2020 for Android, iOS, and Nintendo Switch, and features first-person dungeon-crawling gameplay and a story following the titular Blades faction. With The Elder Scrolls 6 leaked to be coming in 2028 or 2029, the loss of another Elder Scrolls experience in the meantime is a rough blow for the franchise.
Fans looking for an alternative to The Elder Scrolls as the wait for TES6 drags on may have the perfect replacement releasing on June 2.
An in-game announcement notified players that The Elder Scrolls: Blades would be permanently shutting down on June 30, 2026....
