The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era (Preorder)

* Releases January 2025 *

Boasting an epic scope and hours of replayability, The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era is the new Chip Theory Game set in the rich world of The Elder Scrolls. In this wide-ranging game of exploration, adventure, and combat, players will build their character, enter mysterious dungeons, and complete quests all around the world of Tamriel as they seek to stave off a dark future for the continent. With a wealth of branching character options, enemies and quests right out of the box, no two plays will ever be the same. Do you have what it takes to save Tamriel?

The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era is a 1-4 player cooperative tabletop adventure set during Tamriel's Second Era – specifically during the events of the Planemeld, as the Order of the Black Worm plots to secure the Amulet of Kings. As the dark cult schemes, however, one of its members is planning an even darker betrayal, one that will tie Tamriel in with Oblivion forever. Adventurers work to uncover her machinations and stop her plot amid a bevy of endlessly replayable content. As in The Elder Scrolls video games, players will travel on an epic journey, balancing exploration, character building, dungeon diving and close quarters combat.

Each adventure in the game takes place over the course of three gameplay sessions, with sessions being roughly one hour per player in length. Players customize and control a single hero throughout all three sessions of an adventure as they manage multiple skill lines, classes and experience the many regions of Tamriel, each with their own unique flavor and mechanics. Experience points are handed out generously, allowing players to build interesting and unique characters in the consolidated timespan required in a tabletop experience. Session to session progression is meaningful, but players are not required to remember complex narrative points or play with the same group forever.
