One of the highlights of my PAX East Experience was Bethesda Gameplay Day on April 7th. During this time, guests had the opportunity to play The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset, The Elder Scrolls: Legends – Houses of Morrowind, Quake Champions, and try Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus on the Nintendo Switch!

When I heard that there would be a video game about a 90s comic called Battle Chasers, I wasn’t sure what to think. Would the game be interesting to someone who never read the comic?
