The Elder Scrolls: Legends is an online strategy card game spin-off of the Elder Scrolls franchise, developed by Dire Wolf Digital for PC, Mac, iOS, and Android, with PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch versions to be released in the future. Legends is free-to-play and includes microtransactions.

Although a Fall 2015 release was initially announced, the date was subsequently removed from the game's official website. On December 17, 2015, Pete Hines confirmed that it would not be out by the end of the year. Beta sign-ups opened on April 21, 2016 alongside the launch of the product website on Bethesda.net. The NDA was lifted on July 27, 2016, and it entered open beta on PC on August 4, 2016. The game was officially launched on Bethesda.net on March 9, 2017, later releasing on Steam on June 1, 2017.

The iPad version entered open beta on October 6, 2016, but was initially only available in Canada. It was later released on March 23, 2017 in all regions. The Android tablet version entered open beta on April 6, 2017, but was also only available in Canada, as well as Poland; initially announced for an April release, it launched on June 1, 2017. Legends was released on mobile for both Android and iOS on July 26, 2017.

On May 31, 2018, it was announced that the development of the game would be passed from Dire Wolf Digital to Sparkypants Studios, who would be rebuilding the game client from scratch. The new client was released on 26 September, 2018. On 6 December, 2019 it was announced that all ongoing content development would be put on hold, with the game only receiving maintenance support for the foreseeable future. The Elder Scrolls: Legends Asia, a separate version of the game for Asian markets, was released on November 28, 2019 and remained under development by GAEA Mobile; however, on October 29, 2020 it was announced that the Asian servers will be shutting down on December 31, 2020.
