The Elder Scrolls: Blades tries its best to simulate that good old Elder Scrolls feel. The game’s graphics are sharp for a mobile title, and its first-person combat is on par with the main Elder Scrolls games.

Even though Blades is free, the game isn’t compatible with older phones, so it’s a good thing Blades is coming to the Switch.

Bethesda started its E3 Showcase with some Blades news, such as new quests and systems. However, that was nothing compared to the Switch version reveal, especially since gamers can seamlessly transition between their Switch and mobile copies without losing any progress.

Oh, and the Switch version will support multiple control schemes, including attacking by swinging a Joy-Con like a sword.

However, the mobile version is marred by questionable design choices, such as time-gated content and annoying microtransactions.

Gamers are critical of these issues, so here’s hoping Bethesda patches them out in time for the Switch version’s release.
