The deal where existing ESO players can get ESO on XBONE or PS4 for $20 is pretty legit.
I was secretly hoping that Consoles could use the same megaserver, so we could play on console or PC as long as we logged in, but I understand that that's a lot to ask, and would probably be really hard to implement.
And letting people migrate their characters is amazing.
Overall, good info.
So if it $20 does that mean it only going to be an offer for the US? Or will the UK get and equally good offer. As I would love to take my character over to the Xbox one.
£12.99 Not bad right?
Wow. So it is official that consoles have been delayed. I'll pass this information over to the Xbox forums then. Glad I will be able to transfer my character over to my Xbox One when it does release though. No point in rushing it if it's not ready. No shame in postponing it either.
erm... they released a pc version full of bugs and bots and have just delayed a console version for 6 months at least so I wouldnt go that far but a good offer...

Better hope they don't put any "world first" achievements in the game or they would pretty much be trivialized from the get go.
Yes i would like to know this as well. If its just a one time transfer I would much rather play my characters on pc rather than switch them to console and not be allowed to play them on pc as well.ZeroInspiration wrote: »Does anyone knows if the same account can be used in both platforms without paying an extra subscription? Or will I have to pay 2 subscriptions? Because this is actually a great opportunity for me since most of my friends will be getting the game on PS4 and I wish to play with them.

So my pc account will be on my ps4 too? Will I be able to play both at once? Or am I able to buy a new version for $20 for ps4 for a different account?

Also, my Gamestop still had plenty of copies of the Explorer's Pack left. Not in anyway affiliated with GS, just letting people know about a deal that could save them money.

Won't happen, it's a ''Megaserver'' i really doubt they will implement an instance only those who transfer.

Of course 2 seperate game servers since the megaservers arent cross platform compatible... unless I missed a memo with the game being cross platform joined servers.
