Bethesda Softworks are today taking beta sign-ups for forthcoming Tamriel set MMO, The Elder Scrolls Online. Those interested in participating must perform a dark and ancient blood pact, binding their soul to the corrupted realm of Oblivion… no, wait, you have to register at ElderScrollsOnline.com. That’s much simpler.

No date has been given for the beta period, but successful applicants will be informed of the test schedule at a later date. In the meantime, Bethesda have unleashed an action-packed cinematic trailer, showing off the game’s three factions. And some werewolves.
