After 6 years, The Elder Scrolls Blades is shutting down in June, and Bethesda's made everything in the RPG super easy to unlock for the remaining time: "Thank you for playing"

Best elder scrolls games.

Just over six years from when the game became playable, The Elder Scrolls: Blades is closing for good. As a result, every reward in the free-to-play spinoff from Bethesda's RPG series has been heavily reduced in order to maximize people enjoying the game for the limited time it's still available.

Bethesda made the announcement through an in-game message. "The Elder Scrolls: Blades servers will permanently shut down on June 30, 2026," reads the post, screenshotted by The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages. "From now until June 30, 2026, all items in the store will be available for 1 Gem or 1 Sigil each. All players receive a free bundle of Gems and Sigils, so you can enjoy all content Blades has to offer."
