The Elder Scrolls Online Expands with Gold Road
Hey there, fellow adventurers! Get ready to embark on a thrilling new journey in The Elder Scrolls Online (TESO). Bethesda has just unveiled their latest annual expansion, The Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road, and it’s set to launch on June 3rd for PC and Mac. Console players, don’t fret! You’ll be able to join the adventure on June 18th, as it releases on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.
A Dickensian London? Not Quite!
Now, I know what you’re thinking when you hear “Gold Road” – it sounds like TESO is taking us to a Dickensian version of London, right? Well, not exactly. Gold Road will actually transport us to the captivating region of West Weald, which borders Cyrodiil, the Gold Coast, and Valenwood. Prepare to step foot in Skingrad, a city we first encountered in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Ah, nostalgia!
A New Daedric Prince and Wood Elves Galore
Whether you decide to stick with your trusty character or create a brand new one, Gold Road promises an enthralling narrative arc. Prepare to investigate the mysterious appearance of Ithelia, a never-before-seen Daedric Prince in the Elder Scrolls series. Along your journey, you’ll cross paths with Wood Elves, as their forests have unexpectedly engulfed about a third of the region. These enchanted woods have encroached upon the realm of the Colovian Count Calantius, an independent nation allied with the Imperial forces of nearby Cyrodiil.
But fear not, brave adventurers! Bethesda has equipped us with a new Scribing system to help us navigate these dangerous new threats. With this system, you can unleash your creativity and customize your own skills. It’s like being a master of magic, forging your own unique path by editing primary, secondary, and tertiary effects. Now, that’s true power!
The Road to Gold Road
Before we dive headfirst into the Gold Road chapter, let’s take a moment to appreciate the thrilling content roadmap that awaits us in the first half of 2024. Alongside the expansion, TESO will be treating us to the Scions of Ithelia dungeon DLC. Prepare yourselves for two exciting dungeons, Oathsword Pit and Bedlam Veil, designed for both solo players and groups of four. These dungeons will set the stage for the upcoming chapter, as you seek revenge for the God of Curses in one and defend the hold of the Demiprince of Maelstrom in the other.
Mark your calendars, PC and Mac players! The Scions of Ithelia dungeon DLC pack is set to arrive on March 11th. Console players, your turn is just around the corner, as it releases on March 26th for Xbox and PlayStation. Get ready to sharpen your blades and prepare your spells – epic battles await!
