The Elder Scrolls Online: Greymoor New Story Trailer, Free Play + More

Prepare yourself for a busy week in ZeniMax Online Studios’ award-winning online RPG, The Elder Scrolls Online!

  • Get a taste of ESO’s upcoming Greymoor Chapter with the brand new Greymoor Story Trailer (seen above), which teases the main story and uncovers more details of the deathly plot that threatens to consume the Nord homeland.
  • Now, experience a bite-sized portion of the Greymoor Chapter by participating in the free Greymoor Prologue quest, available to all players at 10:00AM EDT today!
    • This perilous journey takes players into the depths of Blackreach to confront the schemes of Skyrim’s nefarious Icereach Coven, and it progresses the year-long Dark Heart of Skyrim storyline into the Greymoor Chapter. There are new collectible rewards up for grabs, too!
    • Once the Prologue is open, use the free Quest Starter, titled “Prologue Quest: The Coven Conspiracy”, from the in-game Crown Store. Players must then travel to the Fighter’s Guild in Daggerfall, Davon’s Watch, or Vulkhel Guard (depending on their Alliance) and speak with fan favorite Lyris Titanborn to accept the first of two quests, titled “The Coven Conspiracy”.
  • Never played ESO? No problem! The ESO Free Play Event begins Wednesday, April 1 at 10:00AM EDT, and will run through Monday, April 13.
    • Yes, this also means anyone who downloads ESO will be able to play the Greymoor Prologue quest for free!
    • During this period, anyone on PC/Mac through the ESO Launcher, Xbox One (Xbox Live Gold required), and PlayStation 4 can download and play Base Game free and experience a world of adventure. Note: Steam’s Free Play Event will run from April 1-April 6. 
    • To participate in the Free Play Event, players can visit the Free Play page and select their platform. This event gives players access to the ESO base game, which includes four of the game’s original classes, 23 massive unique zones, and an epic main storyline.
