      Add-Ons

      What is The Elder Scrolls Online?

      Every legend starts somewhere - and in The Elder Scrolls Online, it starts with you. 

      Write your story into a vibrant chapter of Tamriel’s distant past that takes place nearly 1,000 years before the iconic The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and discover a world steeped in adventure and possibility. 

      • A diverse fantasy world
        Travel the vast land of Tamriel and discover a world of adventure. Explore the mushroom forests of Morrowind, battle Daedric foes in the realms of Oblivion, or face off against other players in PvP combat.
      • Rich stories on a shared canvas
        Immerse yourself in award-winning storytelling that's crafted with the same spirit as your favourite Elder Scrolls games. Discover an ever-growing world with friends or solo.
      • Purpose in every path
        Choose from an array of quests and challenges that fit your desires and ambitions. Grab a fishing rod and relax at the shore, seek lost treasures, conquer group dungeons or craft new armour. Make this Elder Scrolls world your own - you belong here.
      • Console enhanced
        Play natively on PlayStation 5 to greatly improve the game’s visual fidelity and performance. All new ESO players can access Console Enhanced immediately upon purchasing - and for existing customers, it is available as a free upgrade.

      Get the 2025 Premium Edition to experience all ESO adventures in one place and begin your journey in the world of Tamriel. Includes the Base Game, 2025 Content Pass and all eight previous Chapters.

      A direct sequel to ESO’s main story

      Travel to the mysterious island of Solstice and begin your new adventure right where The Elder Scrolls Online's main story left off.

      Though Molag Bal and Mannimarco were defeated in the Oblivion plane of Coldharbour, the Worm Cult has returned. Unravel their dire plans and uncover the secrets of the Writhing Wall, a colossal arcane barrier that divides the island. Tamriel hangs in the balance.

      A whole year of adventures 

      Discover four major content updates, featuring a world-changing in-game event where you and your fellow players must stand against the Worm Cult and breach the Writhing Wall.

      The Elder Scrolls Online 2025 Premium Edition includes two dungeon packs (four new dungeons total), two-part story content, the in-game event and a brand-new zone to explore.

      Experience new challenges and stories 

      Venture into a new 12-person PvE trial, contend with dangerous new monsters and bosses, immerse yourself in captivating new delves and public dungeons, experience a host of new standalone quests and characters, and earn unique in-game rewards.

      Why you should play The Elder Scrolls Online

      "The Elder Scrolls Online is more than just an RPG - it's a celebration of a beloved and ever-expanding game world that traces it roots all the way back to 1994's The Elder Scrolls: Arena.

      Gathering together almost two decades of fantasy world-building spread across various award-winning Elder Scrolls titles including Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim, The Elder Scrolls Online not only revisits but expands upon Bethesda's rich universe with hundreds of new stories, intriguing characters and historic events, whilst offering never-before-seen glimpses into new regions of Tamriel.

      Whether you're a long-time fan or a complete newcomer, The Elder Scrolls Online is an incredible adventure through one of gaming's most well-realised universes."
