THE ELDER SCROLLS Celebrates 25th Anniversary with Free Play and Unleashed Dragons

The Elder Scrolls is 25-years old, so to celebrate the anniversary, players can begin their new Elder Scrolls Online journey to the Khajiiti homeland with the Elsweyr Prologue Quest for free, check out the new Elsweyr zone with a brand new trailer, enjoy sales on the ESO base game and Summerset Chapter, and try the game out for free during our Free Play Event.

UNLEASH DRAGONS WITH THE ELSWEYR PROLOGUE

In the Wrathstone DLC game pack, you began your Season of the Dragon adventure by delving into two challenging dungeons and collecting both halves of the mysterious Wrathstone tablet. With the Elsweyr Prologue, going live later today, you can discover the true purpose of the Wrathstone, and, as shown in the Elsweyr Cinematic Trailer (seen above), unleash Dragons upon the unsuspecting Khajiit of Elsweyr.

PLAY FOR FREE

Starting this Thursday, March 28, and running until Wednesday, April 3, you can play The Elder Scrolls Online free on all platforms.

Because the Free Play Event includes access to the base game, this means that as a free play player, you can check out the Elsweyr Prologue Quest and begin the adventure that eventually takes you to the home of the Khajiit in The Elder Scrolls Online: Elsweyr (now available for pre-purchase)!

In addition to access to the ESO base game, the Free Play Event also allows you to visit the Morrowind zone, giving you the opportunity to explore Tamriel and the island home of the Dark Elves.

PICK UP ESO ON SALE

In addition to the Free Play Event and Prologue Quest, later today, Bethesda is also putting The Elder Scrolls Online base game and The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset on sale for all platforms. Visit our Buy Now page or your preferred retailer for details (sales should go live as the day continues). Note that the sale ends at a different time depending on the product:

  • The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset is on sale until April 2
  • The Elder Scrolls Online Standard Edition (the base game) is on sale until April 9

CELEBRATING THE ELDER SCROLLS

Bethesda is thrilled to take part in this amazing milestone for The Elder Scrolls and continues to bring new and exciting adventures to Tamriel. If you’ve never had the chance to check out ESO for yourself, thanks to this Free Play Event and sale, there’s never been a better time to visit Tamriel’s 2nd Era and explore a world without limits.

Don’t forget, you can continue the adventure you start with the Elsweyr Prologue Quest by pre-purchasing The Elder Scrolls Online: Elsweyr, coming June 4. The Season of the Dragon is just heating up!
