February 2019 impresses with two new games and a few cool expansions for well-known titles.
If you want to play something new, February has some exciting titles. With Anthem and Far Cry: New Dawn, two new titles are hitting the market. Plus, there are cool updates for familiar games.
The Elder Scrolls Online – Prepare for the Dragons
What’s new in The Elder Scrolls Online: In the first quarter of 2019, something completely new begins in ESO: the Season of the Dragon.
It begins with the Wrathstone DLC, where the backstory to the gripping cinematic trailer seen by players for the big chapter Elsweyr is told.
Somehow, the cunning Abnur Tharn must have come across the mysterious stone tablet “Wrathstone” that unwittingly unleashes dragons upon Elsweyr. This story is told in the Dungeon DLC “Wrathstone”.
The DLC is set to be released in the first quarter of 2019 and has been on the test server since January 21. So it is quite possible that it goes live sometime in February. ZeniMax did not confirm this for us upon request.
But even if February passes without the DLC, a trip to Tamriel is worthwhile.
Why should you play ESO?
If the Wrathstone DLC is released, it will clearly be the big highlight for ESO. In two dungeons, you will assist Abnur Tharn in searching for the two halves of the tablet . One dungeon should be familiar to fans of Oblivion.
In the dungeons, there will be unique loot to further equip your heroes.
Also, the dungeons are not just any instances with no connection to the rest of the game. Rather, the story behind the two dungeons kicks off the major plot of the Season of the Dragon and the Elsweyr addon.
Without revealing too much: Once you have played the dungeons, you will understand why there are dragons again and have good motivation to replay the upcoming addons and DLCs of 2019.
That’s why ESO is also good without DLCs: Even if the DLC doesn’t come in February, a trip to Tamriel is still worthwhile. There are plenty of quests, dungeons, raids, and other content for you to enjoy.
And you might need materials and other items to optimally prepare for Wrathstone and the following content. And there’s always something happening in PvP in Cyrodiil, so why not take a look there again?
On the next page, you’ll find a game that might be a cool alternative to another hit.
