The anticipated developer change from Dire Wolf Digital to Sparkypants Studios has begun. The entire client has been rebuilt from scratch, including a new interface, new gameboard, new and improved animations, increased gameplay speed, revamped card frames, new premium card animation, and an improved tutorial. This will be the largest update for Legends to date. No progress will be lost and you can just pick up the game where you left off. The new client will be available as an update to the current app, like previous patches.

UESP is busy preparing for this change. You may notice missing card images, but we will be working hard to replace them with versions from the new client as soon as possible! Please post any questions on the Legends talk page.

Unlock a free house, mount, and pet during September's Summerfall event for The Elder Scrolls Online, starting Thursday, September 20th at 11:00AM EDT and lasting until Friday, September 28th at 10:00AM EDT. Work together with other ESO players to explore the Summerset Chapter and earn up to three unique collectibles, including the Psijic Mascot Pony pet, the Psijic Escort Charger mount, and the Grand Psijic Villa house.

To help unlock these rewards, players must acquire the Summerset Pathfinder achievement by discovering all ten of the "Striking Locales" located on both Summerset and Artaeum. See the official site for more details.

Bethesda has announced that the development of The Elder Scrolls: Legends will be handed from Dire Wolf Digital to Sparkypants Studios. Bethesda stated that all the current core mechanics will remain, and players will not lose any of their collection or any progression they have made in the game. The stated reasoning for this change is to help move the game in a new direction, building on Bethesda's creative vision as well as the playerbase's wishlist for features. Pete Hines and Legends community manager CVH held a live Q&A about the change the following day, which is summarized on the UESP blog.

Several members of the UESP traveled to Boston for PAX East and the Bethesda Gameplay Day event, where we interviewed ESO's game director Matt Firor and lead content designer Rich Lambert about the upcoming Summerset chapter. The interview can be read here, and Alarra's write-up about PAX East 2018 can be read on the UESP blog: Part 1 (Thurs/Fri) & Part 2 (Bethesda Gameplay Day).

The much-anticipated next chapter for Elder Scrolls Online was revealed today: The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset. This chapter takes place in a new zone, Summerset Isle, and involves Razum-dar and the Psijic Order, and introduces a new skill line and trial. It will be released for all platforms on June 5, 2018, though PC/Mac will have an advanced release on May 21.

The next expansion for Legends has been announced: Houses of Morrowind. This expansion adds roughly 150 new cards based on Morrowind and its appearances in the games, particularly the Great Houses. It introduces three-attribute cards and new mechanics, and raises the deck size from 70 to 100. The expansion will be released March 29.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was added to the PlayStation Now roster of games in December. This is a paid service, and the game has received no HD makeover.
