The same team behind popular game series such as Doom, Fallout and so many more, Bethesda, is currently working on a new mobile game known as The Elder Scrolls: Castles. It serves as the third installment from the developer's legendary Elder Scrolls series on mobile.

While the previous mobile titles, namely The Elder Scrolls: Legends and The Elder Scrolls: Blades, were a collectible card game and an action RPG game respectively, this upcoming title offers a fresh take on the simulation genre that will "put you in control of your very own castle and dynasty."

With you having assumed Kingship, you can use your power to manage your castle, make key decisions that will impact your legacy, and complete quests against classic Elder Scrolls enemies.
