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.
Is this a cross-console beta test?
No, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One players will have their own megaservers—one for North America and one for Europe, respectively. For the beta (and at launch), you will be able to choose which one you want to play on. Characters are unique per megaserver.
How many megaservers are available during the ESOTU console beta test? Can I choose which one I want to play on?
We will have two megaservers for PS4 and two megaservers for Xbox One—one for North America and one for Europe, respectively. You may choose which one you want to play on.
Will we be playing the full game during the ESOTU console beta test, or only parts of it?
Everyone participating in the ESOTU console beta test will have access to the full console version of the game, not a slimmed down version.
