While the MMORPG will continue getting updates, ZeniMax Online Studios lost a number of developers, including key studio leadership. As fans had feared, those cuts are now also leading to major changes in the game’s originally promised roadmap for new content. An overhaul to the Warden class that fans have long begged for will now arrive in 2027. It’s one of a handful of anticipated features that’s been delayed as a result of the layoffs.
