Will launcher migrate to Steam?

Wondering if our Zenimax launcher accounts will be migrating to Steam like the Bethesda launcher games are?

Not at this time, as they have written in the FAQ, but I hope it will never happen. What I would like is XBox Achievements on the PC version.

Hey there @TimeViewer

As Meiox mentioned and as stated in our article, The Elder Scrolls Online is unaffected by this change to the Bethesda.net Launcher.

I do not want to ressurect this thread, but since I migrated to Linux I'm curious about the possibility to also migrate my TESO account to Steam to profit from Valve's Proton compatibility tools. Afaik, Lutris has some issues with TESO atm.

The Bethesda.net migration to Steam is only for Bethesda accounts and is unrelated to ESO. However if you were to purchase ESO on Steam you could link accounts and then play through Steam.

Can I link my existing Elder Scrolls account to my Steam account?

Would this be possible when ESO offer the game for free?

No, you wouldn't be able to link accounts by using a free trial account during a free play event.
