The Elder Scrolls Online Console Beta Starts Today

Thanks to a post on the game’s official website from the folks at ZeniMax Online, we learn that invites for the closed beta of The Elder Scrolls Online’s console versions should have been sent, in anticipation of its start today, at 14:00 GMT/7:00 PDT/10:00 EDT. The beta will conclude on Monday 27th, at the same time of the day.

There is apparently no NDA on the beta, and megaservers will be available for both North America and Europe for each console. As one might have guessed, there will be no cross-play of any kind between the two consoles, and any character used during the beta will be wiped before the June 9th official launch:

What is the ESOTU console beta test?

This is a limited, closed public beta. You must receive an invite to participate. We are sending invites to some of those who signed up for the ESOTU console beta (not everyone who signed up will get an invite).

When is the ESOTU console beta test?

The ESOTU console beta test opens on Thursday, April 23rd, at 10AM EDT and ends on Monday, April 27th, at 10AM EDT.

When will invites for the ESOTU console beta test be sent out?

Invites start going out today, Wednesday, April 22nd, at 10AM EDT, so check your inbox. Don’t forget to check your spam box, too (just in case!). We strongly advise that those invited start downloading the game as soon as possible.

Is there an NDA in place for the ESOTU console beta test?

Nope! There is no NDA in place for this beta test, so we encourage participants to share screenshots and livestream until your heart’s content.

Will my characters from beta carry over to the live version of ESOTU on PS4 and Xbox One?

Unfortunately, no. We will be wiping all characters from the ESOTU console beta before the official worldwide launch on June 9th. If you are eligible for the PC/Mac to PS4 and Xbox One transfer, your characters will be waiting for you on the PS4 and Xbox One megaservers at launch. Otherwise, you will be creating new characters on launch day.
