With The Elder Scrolls Online, the long wait may be coming to an end. Information about the planned console port for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One should be available in the coming days.
The most important news about The Elder Scrolls Online can be found in the “The Road Ahead” letter from producer Matt Firor. Currently, the most significant aspect for the MMO is certainly the planned port for the current-gen consoles PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It was initially scheduled for summer but was postponed to the end of 2014. Then it was said that the date could not be guaranteed, and since then, there has been silence. In the last letter, Firor promised that information would follow soon. That was already six weeks ago.
The next “The Road Ahead” letter is said to be coming in a few days, according to the forum of The Elder Scrolls Online. Right now, it’s Thanksgiving weekend in the USA, which means not much is happening, but starting Monday, they will ramp up for the end of December.
At the moment, it seems almost impossible to meet the currently valid release date of the end of 2014. There should have been much more information about the crucial port for TESO. We will probably find out in the next three or four days when we can expect the consoles. We should also receive information in Firor’s letter about what will be in update 6, which may be a bit more substantial than in October. The Imperial City and the transition from the veteran to champion system are likely next on the to-do list; so far, only a new inventory system for update 6 has been confirmed, along with a revamp of the cooking profession and the “Provisioner” stories.
