The game takes place in Tamriel in the year 864 of the Second Era, some 400 years prior to the events of Arena and the rest of the series. It also features a protagonist with a set name, race and set of skills, whereas the other games allow the player to customize all of these elements. Redguard differentiates itself from the core Elder Scrolls games by being a linear action game played entirely in the third person, whereas other entries in the series feature a free roaming environment and a choice between a first- and third-person viewpoint. The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard is an action role-playing video game developed and published by Bethesda Softworks with a third person style, set in the world of The Elder Scrolls.
