Good news for fans of Oblivion and Skyrim- if you preordered The Elder Scrolls Online there's a decent chance that you're getting early access to the game. It's a nice little bonus that will ensure that the real fans of the series get to play with each other before the masses descend.
In fact, some of those who have preordered can start a whole five days earlier on this Sunday, March 30. Three-day early access starts next Tuesday April 1, and then the game launches for the whole world on Thursday night/Friday morning.
