Elder Scrolls Online Roadmap Under Review After Microsoft Layoffs

ZeniMax Online Studios announced a review of The Elder Scrolls Online's development roadmap on July 6, the same day Microsoft laid off 1,600 Xbox employees with plans for 1,600 more. The roadmap for Season 1 and beyond will be changed, though Season 1 itself is still set to start July 9. A quest creator at ZeniMax said half her team was cut, indicating the layoffs are already affecting the game's schedule.
