The fantasy MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online had a showcase during Bethesda’s presentation at E3. There, they showed what awaits players in 2015.
Bethesda opened the big E3 conference last night. The focus was on Fallout 4 (Release: November 10), but The Elder Scrolls Online also had a segment. Game Director Matt Firor couldn’t be there live, as he and the team are still busy with the console launch. Millions of players are currently exploring Tamriel, it was said.
However, they sent this trailer announcing what will happen this year in The Elder Scrolls Online on PC, Mac, Playstation 4, and Xbox One:
Additionally, they are working on numerous other features that they want to add to the already rich and full world.
“The Imperial City is not that far away”
Later, the German Community Manager Kai Schober gave a hint to soothe some grumpy fans who had expected more: “The Imperial City is not that far away.” The actual stars in the first reactions from fans were other things anyway. A few were quite excited about the “bear mounts” on reddit.
A lot is already known about the “Imperial City”, which will be a central part of Cyrodiil, the PvP zone. The faction with the most castles will have access to the Imperial City. There will be quests and PvE rewards in the Imperial City itself. It should really be worth going there for adventures.
If the balance of power shifts in Cyrodiil, a new faction will come in and try to oust the “old” one. So it is both a PvE and a PvP zone in constant flux. The concept closely resembles the dungeon “Darkness Falls” from the classic Dark Age of Camelot.
Orsinium, the homeland of the Orcs, will also be a DLC that will be released later this year. So far, relatively little is known about Orsinium.
