The Elder Scrolls Online is getting a card game minigame

It's a big day for The Elder Scrolls Online. Zenimax Online Studios has just unveiled the MMORPG's next chapter, High Isle, along with its new year-long adventure, Legacy of the Bretons, in its 2022 reveal livestream. Among all the details on what's to come in the months ahead - which is a lot - there's some exciting news for those fans who enjoy kicking back in-game and rattling through some decks. That's because there's a collectible card game coming to the MMO this year.

The Elder Scrolls Online's CCG is called Tales of Tribute, and it's played entirely within the game - think The Witcher 3's Gwent rather than the standalone app. "You're generally going to be able to play it anywhere," creative director Rich Lambert explains in the livestream (below). "You''ll find it in taverns throughout Tamriel, you can also just go up to somebody and challenge them directly, or you can find a match in the group UI."

Additionally, there's a storyline you can advance by taking on certain NPCs found throughout Tamriel. Tales of Tribute also has its own ranking system, so you can battle it out against other players if you like. So, there'll be both single-player and multiplayer offerings.
