Here’s why it’s worth it: The event runs from December 6 to December 11. During this time, you will have access to a variety of content.
- You will have access to the Morrowind DLC. From the start, you can travel to Vvardenfell, a region of the Dark Elves, and marvel at the otherworldly fauna. According to players, the main story of Morrowind can be completed quickly. So it’s ideal for the duration of the event.
- Once your character reaches level 10, you can participate in the large-scale Alliance War in Cyrodiil. This is a huge open PvP area where you can be attacked by other players at any time. There is no PvP outside the duel function in the regular game world.
- If you prefer smaller skirmishes, you can compete in PvP arenas with 3 other players in 4v4v4 battles.

Will I keep my progress? Characters that you leveled in previous events can continue to play in this event. All progress made during the event can also be retained afterward. If you decide to purchase The Elder Scrolls Online later, you can continue playing directly.
Who is this MMO suitable for? ESO offers something for every type of player. However, it is more a Skyrim Online than a World of Warcraft. The exploration of the world and experiencing the story is the focus.
The MMO is one of the most played games on Steam. New players don’t need to worry about a lack of players. But solo players also get their money’s worth. Because: ESO is great to play alone.
When purchasing The Elder Scrolls Online, the chapter Morrowind is already included.
