The Elder Scrolls Online welcomes you back to Summerset Isle

March 21, 2018 Luke Henderson

Bethesda teased something for The Elder Scrolls Online earlier in the week and now we know what it is, welcome to Summerset Isle, the new location in the next DLC pack, Summerset.

This is not the first time that players will get to experience Summerset Isle, it first appeared in The Elder Scrolls: Arena, the first title in the Elder Scrolls series. While it has been a while since players entered the world, 1994 to be exact, this years expansion for The Elder Scrolls Online, will give all players a fresh look at the world again. With a massive and vibrant new zone, an epic main story, a new skill line based on the Psijiic Order, and the introduction of Jewelry Crafting, The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset offers an expansive installment for both new and veteran players. Here is your first look at the gameplay itself:

I for one, love a good dot point list and Bethesda have created one, showing off the highlights for what players can expect here, check it out.

• A New Zone: Summerset Isle, a uniquely beautiful land that’s an even larger addition than last year’s massive Vvardenfell from ESO: Morrowind

• An Epic Main Story: More of ESO’s award-winning story concludes the Daedric drama that began in 2015’ Orsinium DLC

• The Psijic Order: For the first time in an Elder Scrolls game, join the mysterious Psijic Order and explore their secretive home city of Artaeum

• New Skill Line: Master the magic of the mages of the Psijic Order to gain a new combat skill line and wield control over time itself

• Jewelry Crafting: ESO’s latest crafting skill allows players to create powerful gear for their characters

• New Group PvE Challenges: Players can band together to face the challenges of Cloudrest, a new 12-player Trial, new Delves and Bosses, and other content including the Abyssal Geysers

For those looking to jump in, Summerset will release on June 5th, right before E3 (just like last year, sigh) and it will be available on PC and Mac, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, no Switch version people.

If you are new to the series, you can enjoy the full game right now as a Free Week has also been announced, find all the details and get started on the official site.
