Xbox introduced that Elder Scrolls Legend: Battlespire and The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard, two basic Elder Scrolls titles from over 20 years in the past will likely be coming to the Microsoft retailer by way of Xbox Insiders.
Bethesda will likely be on the lookout for participant suggestions as they work to carry the video games to the Microsoft Retailer on Home windows sooner or later. Elder Scrolls Legend: Battlespire was initially supposed to be a The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall growth, however was spun off into its personal recreation.
The attention-grabbing function present in Battlespire and never in some other Elder Scrolls title was PVP multiplayer deathmatches. The sport story focuses on the participant battling the Daedra and venturing forth into Oblivion. From the official announcement:

An agent despatched to analyze discovers the Battlespire’s workers useless and the gate again to Tamriel blocked with the power beneath siege by vile daedra, the one means out is to go deep into darkness and into the Daedric Realms.
Together with Battlespire, gamers can even get their palms on The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard. That is the one time within the Elder Scrolls collection the place the participant performs as a predetermined character, Cyrus the Redguard. Redguard had a third-person digicam and felt completely different in comparison with any of the opposite Elder Scrolls video games that had come out round that point.
ONE MAN AGAINST AN EMPIRE

Cyrus, the legendary Redguard mercenary, leads a riot in opposition to the Empire.
