At this point the number of platforms Skyrim has been ported over to has become a well-worn joke, so when The Elder Scrolls: Blades was first announced at this year’s E3, you could be forgiven for those exasperated sighs of “oh, so it’s Skyrim…on mobile”. 

But no, we’ve been assured by developer Bethesda that Blades is its own entity within the Elder Scrolls universe, filling a very different role to any Elder Scrolls game before. So, with the world on tenterhooks for any snippet of information related to The Elder Scrolls 6, will Blades manage to fill that void of new TES content, or will fans feel let down by a slimmed-down experience? We got hands-on with the demo at this year’s Gamescom, and spoke to Bethesda Softworks vice-president Pete Hines to find out more.
