Introduction to the Gold Road Chapter
Fans of The Elder Scrolls Online, brace yourselves for a fresh journey as ZeniMax Online Studios announces The Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road, set to launch in June 2024. This latest chapter invites players to delve into 30 hours of new main quest content, enriched with a unique storyline and uncharted characters. “Gold Road” is not just a new chapter; it’s a return to the beloved locales from The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, continuing the saga that began in last year’s “Necrom” chapter.
A Deep Dive into Gold Road’s Features
“Gold Road” is more than a mere expansion; it’s a realm of new experiences and mysteries. Players will unravel the schemes of Ithelia, a Daedric Prince previously unseen in the Elder Scrolls series. The adventure leads through encounters with crafty Wood Elves and the task of safeguarding West Weald from the chaos unleashed by the Forgotten Prince’s return.
Innovations in Gameplay: Introducing Scribing
A standout feature in “Gold Road” is the introduction of Scribing, a novel system that amplifies customization options for players. Scribing allows adventurers to tailor their character’s abilities, adjusting primary, secondary, and tertiary effects. This level of personalization is a first in The Elder Scrolls Online, offering players the freedom to fine-tune their playstyle like never before.
New Zones, New Challenges
Players can expect to traverse through two new zones, each brimming with unique challenges and adversaries. These fresh landscapes promise to enrich the ESO universe, providing new territories for players to explore and conquer.
Scions of Ithelia Dungeon DLC: A Prelude to Gold Road
Setting the stage for “Gold Road” is the “Scions of Ithelia” dungeon DLC. This new Player versus Environment (PvE) content, arriving in March 2024, introduces both two and four-player dungeons – Oathsword Pit and Bedlam Veil. These dungeons not only offer thrilling adventures but also lay the groundwork for the narratives unfolding in the Gold Road chapter.
Availability and Access
The Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road arrives on PC/Mac on June 3, and on Xbox and PlayStation consoles on June 18, 2024. For those eager to learn more, the official Bethesda network (Bnet) article provides all the details. ESO Plus members can access the Scions of Ithelia DLC as part of their subscription, or it can be purchased from the in-game Crown Store.
