The Elder Scrolls: Blades finally coming to Android and iOS

It's amazing that we have Bethesda's The Elder Scrolls game on just about any device with a screen that can run games, but not on mobile. Although Bethesda sought to correct that problem last year when it announced The Elder Scrolls: Blade, a game specifically designed for Android and iOS devices, the franchise is still MIA from mobile.

The game was repeatedly delayed by Bethesda, which suggests a rather premature unveiling. Yesterday, an official announcement revealed that The Elder Scrolls: Blades will be available in Early Access. But what exactly does that mean?

Well, it appears that Bethesda has decided to invite players into Early Access on a rolling basis. So, if you want to get into the game as quickly as possible, you may want to keep your eye on your email for the invite, but make sure you sign up for Early Access first.

More importantly, Early Access is available on iOS and Android, but you might not be able to run the game on just about any device. Although Bethesda's ultimate goal is to support as many Android and iOS devices as possible, here is the list of supported phones and tablets:

iPhone 6s and newer, iPhone SE, iPad Pro, iPad Mini 4 and 5, iPad Air 2 and 3, Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+, Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+, Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+, Samsung Galaxy Note 8, Samsung Galaxy Note 9, Google Pixel 2/2XL, Google Pixel 3/3XL, OnePlus 5 and newer, Moto Z2 and newer, Essential Phone, HTC U11/U11+, HTC U12+, LG V30, LG G7 One, Xiaomi Mi 6, Xiaomi Mi Mix 2, Sony Xperia XZ Premium, Sony Xperia XZ1, Razer Phone, ZTE Nubia Z17, Nokia 8, Sharp Aquos R, Asus ZenFone 4 Pro, Huawei P20/P20 Pro, Huawei Mate 20 Pro, and OnePlus 6T.

Keep in mind that since this is an Early Access title, additional content will be added after launch, including the Arena mode shown in the official announcement last year.

I think this game is not suitable for mobile devices. I can not imagine it on small screens with touch control
