I have some good news for you if you played The Elder Scrolls Online on Google’s now-defunct Stadia cloud gaming service.
Bethesda is following through on its promise to allow people to transfer their Elder Scrolls Online accounts to Windows and Mac, including all of their progress, characters, purchased content, achievements, and inventory items.
According to several members of the Stadia subreddit, the company has been sending emails to players with instructions on how to get the game up and running on their computers, which essentially entails logging into the Elder Scrolls Online website and downloading the game.
The information is also available on the company’s website. According to Android Central, the only drawback is that you won’t be able to transfer your account to the PlayStation or Xbox versions of the game.
Still, for people like my colleague Makena Kelly, who fell in love with ESO just as Google announced it was shutting down Stadia, it’s encouraging to hear that the transfer process is underway, provided, of course, that you have a computer to play the game on.
That’s especially true given that developers have mostly had to figure out what to do on the fly, and Google’s announcement caught them off guard as well.

Bethesda isn’t the only company attempting to assist Stadia users in escaping the mess Google has left them in.
Ubisoft has stated that you will be able to transfer your purchases from the platform to the PC. You’ll also be able to save your Cyberpunk 2077 save file from Stadia before it closes down on January 18th.
