THIS YEAR’S INCREDIBLE NEW CHAPTER – ESO: ELSWEYR
Dragons have returned to Tamriel! The great dragon Kaalgrontiid and others stalk from the skies and threaten to burn down the ancestral home of the Khajiit.
Elsweyr is packed-full of new stories, adventures, and challenges, including:
- A gigantic new zone, Elsweyr, similar in size and scope to last year’s Summerset
- An epic main story quest line with around 30 hours of new adventures that ties into the Season of the Dragon, plus tons of new side quests and exploration
- A powerful new Class: The Necromancer, the most requested addition from the community
- A challenging new 12-player Trial: Sunspire
- Colossal new World Events: Dragon Attacks
- A vast amount of unique Delves, Public Dungeons, and stand-alone quests, as well as a host of updates and quality-of-life improvements
The new Elsweyr zone adds yet another massive landmass to the ESO world for fans to explore. The home of the Khajiit is laden with moon sugar farms, fertile grasslands, scorching deserts, and palatial cities as well as a host of new monsters and enemies.Elder Scrolls veterans may recall exploring the province of Elsweyr in The Elder Scrolls: Arenaas well as its outer edges in The Elder Scrolls Online’s regions of Reaper’s March and Khenarthi’s Roost.
Also coming in ESO: Elsweyr, the game’s first new class since 2017s Morrowind Chapter – the highly anticipated Necromancer. With this dark, mysterious Class, players will command the dead and cast powerful elemental spells to overcome foes and bolster defenses. With the Necromancer, death itself is a weapon.

While I was reading the title, I kinda missed the “Online Introduces” part and got excited reading it as “The Elder Scrolls: Elsweyr”. But when I read again, my body got drowned of the disappointment. I’m a fan of Hack-and-Slash adventure RPGs, especially Skyrim, and I keep wondering when will Bethesda give us a glimpse of The Elder Scrolls VI.
