The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited DLC Details and Trailer

This article is over 9 years old and may contain outdated information

Details for the first major DLC for The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited were announced on Wednesday.

In a post Wednesday, Bethesda detailed the first major DLC for The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited. The DLC, entitled The Imperial City, is coming to PC and Mac on August 31, Xbox One on September 15, and PlayStation 4 on September 16. The extra content is free for anyone with an active ESO Plus subscription. Otherwise it will cost 2500 Crowns in the in-game store.

“Located at the heart of the Cyrodiilic Empire, the Imperial City has fallen into ruin, claimed by Molag Bal’s forces,” the summary on the official site reads. “It is comprised of six Imperial Districts, the extensive Imperial Sewers network, and the White-Gold Tower at its center. The dangers of Imperial City and the Sewers below are best suited for small groups of adventurers, but highly skilled warriors have been known to strike out on their own. While exploring and fighting your way through the Imperial City, be prepared to face not only Molag Bal’s forces, but also enemy players from the opposing alliances.”

The DLC comes in two parts, the DLC game pack and the base-game patch. Both are detailed below:
