Exciting news, a new Elder Scrolls game is now available. No, not that one. Or that one. We're talking about the board game, The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era. The game is designed for 1-4 players who create their own custom hero and embark on an open-ended adventure filled with quests, monsters, and loot--just like in The Elder Scrolls video games. The game launched earlier this year, but it's already racked up strong critic and audience reviews. If you're interested in checking out this new, analog Elder Scrolls adventure, you can pick up The Elder Scrolls: The Betrayal of the Second Era for $225 at Amazon.
The box comes with everything you need to play, including dice, play tokens, cards, character sheets, overland map boards, a set of modular hexagon exploration tiles, a rulebook, province quest books, and more. However, it's worth noting that The Elder Scrolls: The Betrayal of the Second Era Board Game already has an expansion set, Valenwood, which adds the titular province as an explorable region, new encounters, new character classes, and more. It was originally offered as a perk for those who pledged a higher amount to The Betrayal of the Second Era's crowdfunding campaign, but a commercial release seem to be coming soon as it's listed at Amazon, but currently unavailable. It's worth keeping an eye on the listing in case it launches soon.
The Elder Scrolls: The Betrayal of the Second Era Board Game
This isn't the first time The Elder Scrolls has been adapted into a sprawling roleplaying board game. There's also The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Adventure Game--yes, that's right, there's yet another port of Skyrim out there. Two, actually, as there's also the strategy wargame The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Call to Arms.
Starting with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Adventure Game, the game is designed for 1-4 players and features six replayable campaign books, open-ended character customization, and numerous dungeons to tackle. There's even a free-roam mode if you just want to explore Skyrim on your own terms. And that's just the base game--there are numerous expansions, including a giant add-on that increases the maximum number of players for the free-roam mode to eight, a set of upgraded miniatures, and two story expansions--Dawnguard and From the Ashes--that add new guided adventures to play. Check the list below for all The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Adventure Game releases.
For those who prefer more tactical combat, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Call to Arms pits 1-2 players against NPC armies in co-op skirmishes and dungeon delves. The Core Box includes all the rules, dice, and tokens required to start playing. However, there's also a long list of add-ons for the game, including guided story expansions, new miniatures for heroes and monsters, and more. We've rounded up a selection of some notable releases below, and you'll find even more at Amazon.
